            "content": "The  ctie program is used to process multiple change files used with the CWEB system for lit‐\nerate programming.  The CWEB programs allow one to apply patches to a source file  (the  mas‐\nterfile)  by means of a single change file.  ctie can be used to either merge up to 32 change\nfiles into a single one or to apply the changes to the masterfile in order to  create  a  new\nmaster  file.  Output of either the new change file or the patched master file goes into out‐\nputfile.  Any include files (indicated using the CWEB @i command) are fully  expanded  during\nctie processing, which means that the change files are able to modify the contents of any in‐\ncluded files.\n",
