Abstract
In an effort to effectively annotate and document a FORTRAN 90 module that extends the language´s mathematical capabilities to the performance of quaternion operations, the literate-programming paradigm is adopted. The basic principles of this paradigm are discussed through a short introduction to the features of a specific literate-programming system known as FWEB. This system is then employed for the efficient presentation of the FORTRAN 90 quaternion arithmetic module
