C.1.13 Element code

C.1.13.1 Description

Include `computer text'. This does not do any escaping of the enclosed text: if there are any characters which might be special to the SGML parser, then they should be escaped either with an entity reference (that is, using an ampersand) or included in a cdata marked section.

Text which a user is to type should be marked up with the kbd element, and larger blocks of text should be marked up with verbatim.

C.1.13.4 Attribute code/type

This allows you to indicate what type of text is being described here, and can be used by the processing system as a formatting hint or for some other purpose. The only current value is `fspath', for `filesystem path' (for example, the current LaTeX formatter uses this as a hint to allow different hyphenation rules to break a long string appropriately).

• Default: #implied
• Allowed values: fspath
