Comment on Ulix – a Literate Unix

Comments

Looking at the code on GitHub[1] I don't understand how this qualifies as "literate" programming. I'm also not quite sure why you'd version binaries as well as /etc/passwd... There's also an awful lot of "// old line comment removed". Maybe I'm confused but this does not "read like a book".

EDIT: I found what I was looking for [2].

Look at the ulix-book-0.13.nw file. It is the literate document. It contains all the code for the kernel.

Ah, you replied to me just as I found it. I think the README should hint that the code is in the book ;)

I added a pull request based on your comment.
