NONONONONONONONO. \noindent should never be used by the user. A
far better plan would be to use a command that works properly.
Rainer Schoepf's verbatim.sty includes a \verbatiminput command
that handles this case properly. Get the file verbatim.readme
from [anonymous.tex.inputs.latex-contrib] on ymir.claremont.edu
to find out what files are necessary for the verbatim.sty.
