I didn’t know this possibility:

@{
address@hidden: ~ > ls -sal .lilydev-setup.sh 
4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 user user 1121 Dec 30 18:16 .lilydev-setup.sh
address@hidden: ~ > 
{
@}

fails too.


Also tried the following, to no avail:

@macro foo{TEXT}
@indentedblock
@verbatim
\TEXT
@end verbatim
@end indentedblock

@foo{
address@hidden: ~ > ls -sal .lilydev-setup.sh 
4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 user user 1121 Dec 30 18:16 .lilydev-setup.sh
address@hidden: ~ > 
{
}

So I guest I’ll stick to the two embedded environments I use currently.

Thanks again!
