Note that #literal() works well, but only so long as its contents are valid, parse-able VTL. For this reason, it will be deprecated in the next version (1.7) and replaced with this "textblock" syntax:
#[[ you can put absolutely anything in here ]]# But until then, #literal() is the best way to do this when the content is valid VTL. If it is not, the workaround for 1.6 and earlier is to put the content in a separate file and use #include to bring it in.
