Erudite is a book composer and reader. It's up to the author how they 
want to use those books.

I've used them as help system for Cuis (load EruditeHelp package), and 
also for documenting libraries and frameworks, like Morphic, PetitParser 
and Magritte.

The contents of the book are interactive, so for example, the book on 
Morphic embeds the morphs it explains about, the PetitParser book 
displays parser evaluation results, etc.

Also, you can easily embed and point to Smalltalk code.

Just load MorphicBook or PetitParserTutorial packages and have a look.

Cheers,
