-- This is a verbatim mode extension for Dednat6. It was implemented
-- as a VERY quick hack; I needed something that I could bootstrap in
-- just a few minutes and then extend it quickly as I would think of
-- new functionalities that I wanted. I wrote it to use it for the
-- verbatim blocks in the slides for my presentation about Dednat6 at
-- the TUG conference in Rio de Janeiro in july, 2018, as a
-- quick-and-dirty prototype that I would rewrite later. Links:

-- Usage: when Dednat6 "processes" (in the sense of section 3.1 of the
-- article for TUGBoat) a %V-block, it simply stores the contents of
-- the %V-block in the global table "verbalast"; then we run a
-- verbact("...") in a %L-line to transform verbalast in several ways
-- and output a "\def". After a while I discovered that I was always
-- using the same series of transformations, and wrote a function
-- verbdef() for running them. See the eepitch block at the end of
-- this file for tests.
