# A poor man's literate programming tool

Write your documentation and code in one file. Usage:

    poorweb.py   

# How it works

poorweb looks for code chunks enclosed by a line beginning with `>>` and a

line beginning with `<<`. It then collects those code chunks into the file

named after the starting `>>` (the name after `<<` is ignored). When no file

is named, it collects them into the default code file.

# An example

Write the following in `hello.web`:

    \documentclass{article}

    \begin{document}

    Hello world in \textsf{Python}:

    >>

    print 'Hello world!'

    <<

    Hello world in \textsf{PHP}:

    >>hello.php

    

    <>

    print 'Hello world again!'

    <<

    \end{document}

Run:

    python twoweb.py hello.web hello.tex hello.py

`hello.php`, which is named in the source, will also be created.
