src2wwww takes source code as input, and produces formatted listings in html. It also produces alphabetical indexes of declarations, within each file and for a set of files. Works for Ada83, Ada95, Ansi C, and some simple C++. Versions producing FrameMaker documents are also available. Contact: young@cs.purdue.edu ( Michal Young)

C

• src2html takes a C source tree and creates a set of HTML hypertext documents that allows the most important symbols in it to be found easily. Contact: wkt@cs.adfa.oz.au (Warren Toomey)
• ctohtml (No external refs for filter). Contact: sbakke@xcuseme.mitre.org (Steven M. Bakke)
• Cocoon (see below) extracts documentation Web pages from C or C++ header files.
• See also the HyperCode project at MIT
• See also c++2html allows HTML comments to be embedded in C++ source code, and then extracted to produce hypertext documentation of the C++ code. Contact: vanandel@ncar.ucar.edu (Joe VanAndel)
• Another c++2html builds html file for each C++ header file, with class cross references. No special tags within C++ code necessary. Contact: stefans@bauv.unibw-muenchen.de (Stefan Schwarz)
• Another c++2html to convert ANSI-C++ programs into HTML source is derived from Norbert Kiesel's c++2latex. The shar archive is available for download. (For information about how to compile it see file README.c++2latex. Contact: dimka@tochna.technion.ac.il (Dimitry Kloper).
• cxx2html is a Perl script to convert C++ code to HTML. The information extracted from the class declarations is used to create a class summary with links to the member function documentation and to the documentation for the classes which are parameters to the member functions. Contact: dschieb@muse.cv.nrao.edu (Darrell Schiebel).
• Cocoon extracts information from C or C++ source code, including member definitions and inheritance data, and combines it with the documentation you provide to produce visually attractive, navigable, and content-rich documentation pages. Contact: jkotula@camax.com (Jeff Kotula)
• ObjectManual from ObjectSoftware Inc. generates C++ Class documentation in HTML format. HyperLinks for methods, base classes are also generated.
• See also the ROOT project which has automatic HTML document generation for C++.
• See also Ada2html takes a set of Ada source files and generates a set of HTML files. These are the Ada source files with a large number of hypertext links added to them, so users can walk around the Ada source using the links. Contact: wheeler@ida.org (David A. Wheeler)
• See also Floppy (Latest version has HTML generation). Contact: julian@vxcern.cern.ch (Julian Bunn)
• See also the LIGHT project

Lisp

• Lisp2Html hyperizes LISP code and allows you to view it from multiple points of view (functions, objects, etc). Contact: memetral@media.mit.edu (Max Metral)

Erlang

• erl2html takes one or more Erlang files and converts them to HTML where each function call has a link to its definition. Contact: erlang@erix.ericsson.se

Literate programming, CASE and program development tools etc

Some literate programming systems will generate HTML. See for instance the nuweb system.

hgrind is a program based on vgrind that processes program listings into HTML. It processes a variety of languages, including C, C++, Pascal, and FORTRAN. There is the added capability of embedding HTML so that the listing can be its own documentation.
