Re: Formatting @Verbatim text

[Jeff Kingston]

What you ask for is not possible, because it amounts to placing an
unmatched brace ({ or }, or the equivalent @Begin and @End form), in
a definition.  Why not add your code format to prg2lout, if it's not
there already?  It's intended for just this kind of thing.
