+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | asisformat | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Abbreviation: ã|\aifã% Parameters: ã|submarkupã% Submarkup: ã|\skipbefore, \everyasis, \skipafterã% ã|Description:ã% The \asisformat markup allows you to modify the "as is" block. The "as is" markup skips 1 blank line (a baseline) before and after the series. There is no indentation from the left. \skipbefore indicates how much space is to be skipped before printing a block. This amount is in addition to any paragraph skips. The default skip is 6pt. If you are using \monospace, the default skip is 1\bl. \everyasis{Nested Markup} determines how the 'as is' text is printed. This submarkup is only valid within the asisformat markup. Spacing and font changes are allowed, but not justification, right indentation, or other paragraph information. \skipafter indicates how much space is to be skipped after printing a block. This amount is in addition to any paragraph skips. The default skip is 6pt. If you are using \monospace, the default skip is 1\bl. ã|Example:ã% In this example, the "as is" text is to be indented 7 picas from the left margin, the text is to be printed in ten point typewriter, and 4 points skipped before and after. \asisformat{\skipbefore{4pt} \everyasis{\leftindent{7pc}\tenpt\tt} \skipafter{4pt}} Consider my favorite breakfast recipe: \cl{\bd Muckles} \asisbegin 3 eggs beaten 1 cp cream 1 cp flour 1/4t baking powder 1 T sugar pinch of salt bacon (optional) \aie Heat butter or bacon in frying pan.
