Oh, markup inside verbatim. Yeah, this is a topic of some discussion in the Perl community. There was occasionally some talk of a =begin verbatim block that would act like a verbatim block but markup sequences would be allowed, but nothing really came of it. Perl 6 POD solved this problem with their =begin code block that takes as an argument a list of sequences to allow. But no one seems to be using Perl 6 still? I haven't really looked at their POD stuff at all. It started on a weirdly parallel track without much interaction with those of us who were maintaining all this stuff for Perl 5. I generally just give up on this and use the normal text markup conventions of angle brackets and whatnot, although I see why you don't want to do that here. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
