The Weave library in RiscLua has been updated. For example, this is actual code

local library = require "weave"
local BEGIN, LIST, CLASS, TAG, PATH in library
local out = PATH(arg[0]).."abc/html"
local doc = BEGIN ( )
local rope = LIST (TAG.div) (CLASS "mydiv") [[Some text]]
    (TAG.pre) (CLASS "mypre") [[Some program code]] 
    ( )
doc (rope)    -- put rope in doc
doc:END (out) -- write doc to out

A novel feature is LIST which eliminates the need for braces to concatenate ropes – I am expecting some hilarity here . It can contain function arguments (in parentheses) which are applied to a subsequent argument and is terminated by a nil argument. The CLASS function puts a CSS-selector into the attribute part of the tag.

You can put such code into for-loops if you need to create lots of pages at once. And arg[0] is the pathname of the RiscLua program.
