I'm surprised no one has previously followed up on this.

About three weeks ago, someone posted a message on Info-C making a
passing reference to CWEB. This was obviously a version Knuth's WEB
system converted to work with C.

I know just enough about WEB to know that I'm interested, and this
finally motivates me to want to know more.

I know that we have people from Stanford on the net. Can someone please
provide me with ordering information for any books or technical reports.
I understand that the WEB system is available in source. From where? And
what, if anything is available on CWEB? Who did this conversion? Is this
available?

As usual, please answer directly to me if possible. I'll post any
concrete information back to these groups.

                    Thanks in advance,
                    Paul
