1) Are curly brackets ever used in axiom syntax?
It seems to me they are not and they have no meaning in axiom: if it is
so, I can remove them from sanity check, simplifying things.
I don't believe they have any meaning.
Ok, I will remove them from the "sanity check"
2) If I give the command (for example)
)tangle bookvol10.2
then the result is an empty input file.
The tangle command is optimized for files in src/input by default.
...
I see. My doubt was originated from the fact that last week I wrote a
small pamphlet for a package (eea.input.pamphlet) and
)tangle eea
didn't produced any output. This was because I gave a name to every chunck,
always the same but not "*": I thought that )tangle would have extracted
the chunks regardless of the name.
I realized that this was the problem and I corrected it, so I got the
desired input file.
I must say that I like it very much the new format where pamphlet are pure
latex: this is very natural when writing math.
The previous format was somewhat more clumsy.
I'd encourage you to consider writing your vim file as a literate
program since you're the one who understands it best. Other people
will have to reverse engineer it to understand it.
Well, I think that a vim syntax file is something which is not going to be
developed: once it works, it is very unlikely that it will be modified, if
ever.
In any case, I exensively commented both the vim file and the script that
I just submitted: producing it in a literate way I don't think I could add
more.
