+The 'newverbs' LaTeX package
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Copyright (c) 2010-2012 by Martin Scharrer <martin@scharrer-online.de>
+Code repository: https://bitbucket.org/martin_scharrer/newverbs
+
+This package allows the definition of \verb variants which add TeX code before
+and after the verbatim text (e.g. quotes or \fbox{}). When used together with
+the 'shortvrb' package it allows the definition of short verbatim characters
+which use this variants instead of the normal \verb.
+
+Another feature is provided using the macros `\collectverb` and `\Collectverb`
+which allow other macros to collect an argument verbatim to either typeset or
+write it into an auxiliary file, respectively.
+A `\Verbdef` macro is provided to define verbatim text to a macro which can be
+used for writing the text to auxiliary files.
+This differs from the `\verbdef` macro from the `verbdef` package which define
+macros with a typesetable version of the verbatim text which cannot be written
+to auxiliary files.
