The text should be verbatim, but not the formatting. What I want is more
like HTML's
<p><code>type type type C code this text
automatically wraps when too long<br />
but line breaks are respected</code></p>
which adjust the line wrapping according to font size.
I could use the "Standard" environment with Typewriter text (C-p), but I
would probably have the indent at the start of a paragraph :-/

I would not want to provide a hyphenation point in LyX-Code in every
possible location, that would just make editing in LyX less usable.

... and now without making the hyphen actually appear in the resulting pdf.
