Elucidative Programming
The main characteristics of elucidative programming in relation to literate programming are:

  1. The program source files are not affected at all.
  2. The program and the documentation are shown side by side.
  3. The program units which we document, are whole abstractions.
  4. We support on-line presentation in a browser.
  5. The elucidator tool use specific knowledge about the programming language.
  6. Program and documentation indexes are available.
  7. The creation of the format, from which the elucidated information is generated, is supported by a special set of editor commands in Emacs.
