<BLOCKQUOTE>

"I've been fooling around with FunnelWeb for about three days now, and
I'm convinced that this is one of the most powerful tools I have
encountered in almost two decades of programming. I'm in the process
of converting several thousand lines of very repetitive code to
FunnelWeb macros; I can't believe how EASY it is, and how GOOD the
resulting source code and documentation are. Thank you for this tool!"

"I really like the 'quality' of the FW distribution. Well done Ross!
I cannot call it 'professional quality' because much of the
'professional' software I have seen has been VERY POOR.  Your package
is better than 'professional', but I don't know of an appropriate
adjective."

<BLOCKQUOTE>

"I have used FunnelWeb on two ASSEMBLER modules. Written for a
microcontroller with NO DEBUGGING POSSIBLE, so correctness and
emphasis on getting it right was important.<BR>
<BR>
I found it forced me to reorganise the code a bit, to get my concepts
straight. By the time I did this, and documented what I was doing,
[including a C version of an algorithm in one module] It looked good,
and worked in a few passes.<BR>
<BR>
I am VERY happy with the results. ...<BR>
<BR>
And, I got a very nice listing to present the customer!!"

"I use FunnelWeb for everything from my FutureBASIC programming to
maintaining my web pages. It is a cool tool, and one of the few
literate programming environments that are (1) language-independent
and (2) available on the Mac. I couldn't be more pleased with it."

"Let me say that FunnelWeb is the most impressive
literate programming tool I have yet seen.  The language
is powerful, the tutorial manual excellent, and I really
love the new weave facility to output both TeX and HTML
(both of which are very visually appealing -- a rare feat
these days)."
