Yes, I'm aware of Knuth's work, and didn't mean to imply that Stroustrup did
something revolutionary -- although his book and Bertrand Meyer's Eiffel
book are the only ones I've read which try do something elegant with the
code typesetting.

I haven't read Knuth until now, so I assumed he typeset the actual code
parts fixed-width. I see in the CWeb manual that that's not the case.
