Actually, I do know about the verbatim environment (don't have tgrind though).
The reason for my original posting was that I did not (and still do not) know
how to change margins within an environment. Ideally, I would like to use
verbatim, but with the left margin increased by \mathindent (2.5em I think).
No change to right margin.

And here's another question: How can I draw a box around a figure? Tried
\framebox but it keeps keeling over with a message about not being in outer
par mode, or something like that.
