+\section{What is it for?}
+
+Verbatim text is notoriously difficult in \TeX{}; in \LaTeX{} it adds
+confusion by being ``more fragile than fragile''.
+
+This package provides one way out of the impasse: the command
+\verbdefcmd, which defines a robust command that expands to verbatim
+text.
+
+\section{Using \verbdefcmd}
+
+The \verbdefcmd{} command can take an its verbatim string between
+matching characters, as \cs{verb} does:
+\begin{quote}
+\verbdefcmd\cs{demo}\texttt{|demonstration text|}
+\end{quote}
+or you may give it a more normal-looking argument:
+\begin{quote}
+  \verbdefcmd\cs{demo}\texttt{\char`\{demonstration text\char`\}}
+\end{quote}
+
+The command also respects ``\texttt{*}'', as it's used in \cs{verb}
+and the \texttt{verbatim} environment:
+\begin{quote}
+  \verbdefcmd\texttt{*}\cs{stardemo}\texttt{\char`\{with visible spaces\char`\}}
+\end{quote}
+%
+% another self-reference...
+\verbdef*\stardemo{with visible spaces}%
+which will define a verbatim text \stardemo{} (just like that).
+
+\section{Caveat}
+
+If the command you're defining with \verbdefcmd{} is to be used in a
+\cs{section}-type command, or a \cs{caption}, it's going to appear in
+the table of contents (or list of whatever else).  In this case you
+\emph{must} define the command before the \cs{tableofcontents} command
+(or whatever).  I recommend defining such commands in the preamble of
+the document\footnote{In fact, the source of the present document is
+  so structured, since \verbdefcmd{} is used to define a command for
+  \verbdefcmd\dots}.
