I am trying to use the \verbatim command that is in the TeXbook,
but I can't figure it out.  Does anyone out there use this
(or a similar command) in plain TeX?

What I want to do is to have *exactly* what is on my screen
appear on the page.  Could someone suggest exactly which
definitions I need to copy out of the TeXbook?
