------------------------------------- | `fvrb-ex' | | Version 1.7 | | March 27, 1998 | | | | Denis Girou (CNRS/IDRIS - France) | | | ------------------------------------- This package, built above the `fancyvrb' one (from Timothy van Zandt), offer several kinds of the so-called "example" environments to format some code both in "verbatim" mode and in the "normal" way, below or on the side. The advantage of such environments is that the code itself is included only one time in the source code, which allow to be sure of the consistence of the two versions shown. Some other kinds of such environments are specially devoted to graphics, allowing to give the size of them. It is also possible in this case to draw also a grid. Warning! -------- * You must be aware that it has been reported that this package doesn't work at all on some platforms, due to the way the 8 bits characters are managed by some TeX systems. You can make first the following test (courtesy Sebastian Rahtz): \documentclass{article} \usepackage{moreverb} % CTAN/macros/latex/contrib/supported/moreverb \begin{document} \begin{verbatimwrite}{test.txt} £hello \end{verbatimwrite} \end{document} If you got in the file "test.txt" not the exact input line but ^^a3 for the first character, this package has no change to really work for you... Just try to position (courtesy Thomas Esser) LC_CTYPE=C if your system accept it and retry the preceding test. * We suppose here that you already know the `fancyvrb' package. If not, look at it own documentation! * The standard `color' package must be available, with a correct "color.cfg" file defining the dvi converter that must be used. * Some environments, specially devoted to graphics, require PSTricks, but `fvrb-ex' desactivate them if PSTricks is not available so it can be used without it. .............................................................................
