% Problem: Computer Modern Typewriter is the best font for program listings,
%           *but* it prints ` ' as bent opening and closing single quotes.
%           Other fonts, and most programming languages, print ` as a grave
%           accent and ' upright; ' is used both to open and to close quoted
%           strings.

%           See also M. Covington, "Computer Languages in Type," Journal of
%           Scholarly Publishing 26.1:34-41 (1994).

% Solution: This package switches the typewriter font to Computer Modern
%           Typewriter (regardless of other fonts in use, so long as this
%           package is called afterward) and modifies the behavior of
%           verbatim, verbatim*, verb, and verb* to print ` ' the desired way.
%           It does not affect \tt, \texttt, etc.

% The modification is done by adding instructions to \@noligs,
% which is called by verbatim and verb in order to turn the
% characters ` < > , ' - into active characters that merely
% print themselves rather than activating ligatures.
%
% What is added is code to redefine ` as grave and ' as upright single quote.
%

% Bug fix, 2000/12/11: previously, '0 (or ' and any digit) would print as a
% nonexistent character.  (The reason: \char13 or \char18 was combining with
% the digit to make \char130, etc.)  Fixed by adding curly brackets.

% Use textcomp official chars so that change works in various
% encodings
%
% Extend \@noligs (this also works with the latest listings package
% that recognizes that the package was loaded)
