(La)TeX

TeX is a typesetting system which produces high quality results – despite of its age. I became acquainted with TeX back in my university days. I have been in touch with it since then.

Typesetting Prolog Code

The idea of “Literate Programming” is to tie together the code and the documentation. The required aspect can then be extracted. The package pl provides a poor man’s solution for Prolog. It allows you to use the same file without change or generation for LaTeX and for Prolog.
