I am new to using LaTeX. I have been using Scribe for years and am
trying to convert something from Scribe to LaTeX format.
The document is a curriculum vita and was done with the verbatim
environment in Scribe. Included in the text is some boldfacing.
Scribe will interpret commands in a verbatim environment so this
is pretty simple to do. However, LaTeX in verbatim mode is incapable
of parsing LaTeX commands (some might argue that is what verbatim means)
so I don't know how to go about doing what I want. The Scribe document
looks basically as follows:
@begin[verbatim]
@b[Born]: date place
@b[Education]
B.A. ....
M.A. ....
Ph.D. ....
@b[Professional Societies]
List of them follows
etc.
@end[verbatim]
What I need is a LaTeX command which says don't change the way in
which I have formatted this but do listen to things such as font changes.
Can this be done? How do I do it? Please e-mail me the answer.
Thanks in advance.
