But I don't want a whole paragraph in that style, that's the thing. I
want just a section in the middle of the sentence. Or are you
suggesting using nested environments? I haven't played with that much.
Can you nest environments within a single paragraph?
For example:
If you run make in the foo/bar/obj directory, you'll see that...
Now, I want filenames like "foo/bar/obj" to appear in a fixed-width font
like courier. But I also want them all to use the same character
"style", say "filename", so I can change them all at once later (maybe I
decide I like helvetica better, or a smaller size, or something).
I guess what I'm really looking for is the ability to define new
character styles, like the pre-existing "noun", "emph" and "bold".
AFAICT, I can't do this... or can I? I couldn't find anything in the
docs about it but maybe I wasn't looking hard enough or in the right
places.
I'm happy to implement it "low-level", since I can just re-use it for
other docs and I need this kind of thing all the time.
PS. The problem I have with reading the docs is that I changed the
screen_zoom to 100 and now my X server (Solaris 2.5.1/openwindows)
just dies whenever I try to open a big document--it starts saying
"loading font into server", as always, then bang! Back to the
console. No errors, no core, no nuthin'. I haven't investigated
properly yet.
I'm a little gun-shy about opening those docs now :)
