NAME
       tie - merge or apply WEB change files

SYNOPSIS
       tie -c|-m outputfile masterfile changefile...

DESCRIPTION
       The  tie  program  is  used  to process multiple change files used with the WEB system for literate programming.  The WEB programs allow to
       apply patches to a source file (the masterfile) by means of a number of change files (often only a single change file is allowed).  Tie can
       be  used  to  either  merge up to 32 change files into a single one or to apply the changes to the masterfile in order to create a new one.
       Output of either the new change file or the patched master file goes into outputfile.

OPTIONS
       -c     Create a single change file from the given changefiles.

       -m     Create a new master file by applying the given changefiles.

ENVIRONMENT
       The environment variable WEBINPUTS is used to search for the input files, or the system default if WEBINPUTS is not set.   See  tex(1)  for
       the details of the searching.

SEE ALSO
       web(1), ctie(1), cweb(1).
