14.2 Version 1.53

This release fixes a relatively small number of obscure bugs in fweb-1.52-beta. A few minor enhancements were also made. They include

  1. Sections can be numbered by consecutive integers rather than LaTeX’s default Dewey-decimal form by saying
    LaTeX.package = "fwebnum"
    

    See Sections in LaTeX.

  2. The ‘-H’ option (experimental and incomplete) was added. For C and C++, this option tells FWEAVE to scan #include files for ‘typedef’ and/or ‘class’ definitions. See -H’: Scan C/C++ include files (FWEAVE).
  3. The ‘-k’ option was added. This tells FORTRAN and RATFOR to understand the lower-case forms of I/O keywords such as ‘iostat’ (with the exception of ‘read’, ‘write’, and ‘end’). See -k’: Don’t recognize lower-case forms of keywords.
  4. The ‘-n:’ option was added. This tells FORTRAN to place statement labels on a separate line, which is useful when the labels are relatively long. (By default, FORTRAN labels are placed on the same line as the thing they are labeling, which looks good for short labels.) See -n:’: Put statement label on separate line [FORTRAN]
  5. The preprocessor command ‘@#line’ was added. For C code, this adds an explicit ‘#line’ command to the tangled output file. This helps to keep the line numbers between debugger and source file in sync when an FWEB preprocessor statement expands to several lines. See Debugging with macros.

    An implicit ‘@#line’ command is added after each ‘@%’ (see @%’: Ignorable comment) that begins a line (this keeps line numbering correct). To override this, use the option ‘-T#’. See -T#’: Don’t insert ‘#line’ command after ‘@%.

  6. -p’ (style-file) options (see -p’: Buffer up a style-file entry) on the command line are now processed after the local style file. See The Style file.
  7. The functionality of the ‘-D’ command was enhanced to include optional arguments that limit the information that will be listed. See -D’: Display reserved words.
