  1. Running a week behind schedule, but these are the #Perl solutions I did for TWC 295 rabbitfarm.com/cgi-bin/blosxom

    I also wanted to point out the use literate programming to write these solutions. I use nuweb to generate LaTeX which I then convert to html. The results are OK, but the format is better for a PDF than for the WWW. If anyone has any suggestions, especially CSS changes, that might improve the readability of these nuweb generated blogs please let me know!

  2. Hey #braintrust, I distinctly remember seeing some kind of quasi-literate presentation framework for JavaScript (or maybe like Coffeescript or similar variant) that had commentary in a sidebar column *next* to the JS code. Does this ring a bell for anybody? My notes turn up nothing.

  3. Is Racket Scribble Literate programming module the Literate Programming endgame?
    So basically Scribble is kindof like markdown but it is written in Racket. It allows also to define & use Racket functions.

    Because of this you do not actually have to generate Racket source FROM Literate Programming Scribble, but it IS the source.
    It can be `required` like any RKT src file and in IDEs you get proper messages if you have any errors.
