Similarly I needed to have the program obey line breaks as
in \obeylines but interpet the lines (font changes etc.) in
the usual way. I did not want space left between lines.
Neither the plain TeX nor the Context solutions fit this
purpose exactly, but plain was closer. So I cobbled up this
code:
\def\startobey{\medskip\setupwhitespace[none]\obeylines}
\def\stopobey{\setupwhitespace[small] \medskip}
I start the section needing verbatim line endings with
{\startobey
.... and end it with
\stopobey}
I don't know if the braces are necessary but the TeXBook
seems to imply such.
My solution tends to ignore blank lines so I have to put a
\medskip instead of a blank line.
This is a terrible solution but the best I could come up
with in a hurry. No doubt someone will suggest a better
one.
BTW whre is \startEIFFEL documented? I don't recall seeing
it before.
