Is this a bug in the verbatim.sty ( {v1.4i} {92/01/20} {91/12/18}),
or am I missing something? The following works fine:
\documentstyle[verbatim]{article}
\title{Nice Title}
\author{me \\ {\tt casterln@are.berkeley.edu} }
\begin{document}
\maketitle
Hello, \verb|everyone|.
\end{document}
But if I change the author line to use \verb:
\author{me \\ \verb|casterln@are.berkeley.edu| }
I get a missing } error. Indicating that the verb is not picking
up the ending character. I never know how much of the error message
to send along, but here is what I'm seeing. Any help appreciated.
You can't use \verb inside the argument of another command.
verbatim.sty cannot change this, as it comes from deep within TeX.
