Including Raw Text Materials

I want to include raw text materials as-is into the tex file. The raw text is produced by anther program. I "inlcude" it in so that I don't need to update my latex file everytime I update the program output. what is the best way to do it?

moreverb

An extension to the verbatim package that can handle TAB expansion, can number lines in an included file, can produce boxed verbatims, etc.

my own hack

w/ quote

awk 'BEGIN{ print "\\begin{quote}\\begin{verbatim}\n" } {print} END { print "\\end{verbatim}\\end{quote}\n"} '

w/o quote

awk 'BEGIN{ print "\\begin{verbatim}\n" } {print} END { print "\\end{verbatim}\n"} '

\begin{verbatim}
\end{verbatim}

Including Raw Text Materials

Use the verbatim package

\verbatiminput{filename}

*References*: [NSS] s4.5, p60.

Including Raw Text Materials

You can use the alltt package. It works like the verbatim environment except that the backslash and the braces retain their usual meaning:

\usepackage{alltt}

\begin{quote}\begin{alltt}
\input{support/validate.text}
\end{alltt}\end{quote}
