2. Introduction or ``What's this all about?''

This document is for new and experienced users of literate programming tools. The purpose is to explain the concept of literate programming and to provide a resource for locating files of interest to literate programmers and those interested in literate programming.

The Literate Programming (LitProg) Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) list is maintained by Dave Thompson <thompson@shelob.ce.ttu.edu>.

Comments and constructive criticisms are welcome. Direct flames to /dev/null (or nul if you're a msdos user! ;-) If you find an error, please report it. I'm particularly interested in establishing the locations of generally available literate programming tools. If you are the author of such a tool and wish to have it included in this list, please send email.

Please note this is a work-in-progress. It is not complete, and probably will never be complete. Nevertheless, the information contained herein may be useful to some. Use it as it is intended.
