Thanks for typesetting the pdfs for other people to read! I was going to claim that I've packaged CWEB for Homebrew so it's easy to get for MacOS users. I went to see if it still works and isn't moved to boneyard, and yes, it's there, but git log didn't show me in the commit history. Just to make sure I wasn't nuts I had to check my notes and found the original commit: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/commit/77aa909188bcb604bbb98b584bd0c3af283a38c2 https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/commit/77aa909188b... . Apparently there's been some history rewriting that I don't quite understand.

Oh great, I was just able to install CWEB with `brew install cweb`. Thanks for your work! And actually `ctangle` and `cweave` already come with a TeX distribution like MacTeX. So the reason for providing a pre-typeset version is not so much that CWEB is too hard to install; it's just that people tend to not use it properly and either try to read the .w file directly, or (even worse) the generated .c file. :-)
