leoTangle.py supports @root files. Such files are deprecated and no longer 
documented. This is on purpose.

leoTangle.py contains some of Leo's oldest and least satisfactory code. 

@root is very slightly more flexible than @file, @clean etc. With @root one 
can define sections (aka chunks) in several places. This ability is one of 
the features of Knuth's original web and cweb projects. However, I have 
never, ever, needed this capability. Imo, it is horrendous programming 
style.

Several (10?) years ago I proposed removing support for @root. Back then at 
least one person objected. What do you think? Is anyone still using @root?
