NAME

6       tie - merge or apply WEB change files
7

SYNOPSIS

9       tie -c|-m outputfile masterfile changefile...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The  tie program is used to process multiple change files used with the
13       WEB system for literate programming.  The WEB programs allow one to ap‐
14       ply  patches  to a source file (the masterfile) by means of a number of
15       change files (often only a single change file is allowed).  Tie can  be
16       used  to either merge up to 32 change files into a single one or to ap‐
17       ply the changes to the masterfile in order to create a new one.  Output
18       of either the new change file or the patched master file goes into out‐
19       putfile.
20

OPTIONS

22       -c     Create a single change file from the given changefiles.
23
24       -m     Create a new master file by applying the given changefiles.
25

ENVIRONMENT

27       The environment variable WEBINPUTS is used  to  search  for  the  input
28       files,  or  the system default if WEBINPUTS is not set.  See tex(1) for
29       the details of the searching.  To avoid conflicts with  other  programs
30       that  also  use the WEBINPUTS environment, you can be more specific and
31       use WEBINPUTS_tie for special requirements in TIE.
