Summary description: Store verbatim text in a LaTeX box, for use in places
where verbatim environment is not allowed.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you need to include blocks of verbatim text inside figures or
tables? The verbatim environment is not compatible with some of these
other environments. But now, the verbbox environment allows you to
input verbatim text and store it in a LaTeX box. That box then becomes
generally usable in all other LaTeX environments, and can be simply
recalled.
This style therefore allows for a greater use of the verbatim environment
within other LaTeX constructs where verbatim was previously inaccessible.
