The primary source is, of course, not in Ada but in the literary web
form. In my copy, the source files are called atangle.aweb and
aweave.aweb. They came combined in one file, which was confusingly named
"texfiles.src". Modifications should of course be made in the .aweb
files,
if you wish to follow the literary programming idea.

The "partially krunched" files are probably AWEB output, which is not
nicely
formatted. Oh well, just pipe it via a pretty-printer.
