<P>A specific terminology has arisen for dealing with FunnelWeb. Some
particularly useful examples are:

<P><BLOCKQUOTE><B>Journal file:</B> An output file containing
                                    a copy of the output sent to
                                    the user's console during an invocation of FunnelWeb. In other systems,
                                    this file is sometimes called a "log file".</BLOCKQUOTE>

<P><BLOCKQUOTE><B>Product file:</B> An output file, generated by the Tangle
                                    component of
                                    FunnelWeb, that contains the expansion of the macros in the input
                                    file. (Other names considered for this were:
                                    generated file, expanded file, result file, program file, and tangle file.)</BLOCKQUOTE>

<P>A complete list of all the special FunnelWeb terminology appears in the
<A HREF="glossary.html">glossary</A>. Be sure to refer to it if any of the terms used are unclear.
