+Verbatim phrases and listings in LaTeX
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+README by pts@fazekas.hu at Sun Jan 16 15:33:24 CET 2005
+
+This directory contains the examplep LaTeX package, which provides
+sophisticated features for typesetting verbatim source code listings,
+including the display of the source code and its compiled LaTeX or METAPOST
+output side-by-side, with automatic width detection and enabled page breaks
+(in the source), without the need for specifying the source twice. Special
+care is taken so section, page and footnote numbers do not interfere with the
+main document. For typesetting short verbatim phrases, a replacement for the
+\verb command is also provided in the package, which can be used inside
+tables and moving arguments such as footnotes and section titles. The
+listings package is used for syntax highlighting.
+
+The article (eurotex_2005_examplep.pdf) reviews the design decisions made
+during the package development and also presents some interesting
+implementation internals. examplep is compared to standard LaTeX packages
+such as listings, ltxdoc, sverb and moreverb. The new codep package and its
+accomanying Perl script, which provide a convenient interface to the examplep
+package for authors of manuals, is also presented. With codep it is possible
+to generate the source code, the LaTeX or METAPOST output and the compilable
+example file onto the CD from a single source embedded into the appropriate
+place of the .tex document file.
+
+The software is free software, covered by the GNU GPL v2.0 or later.
+There is NO WARRANTY.
