This may well be a clean approach.
After my previous email, I looked again at the definition of thr \AsIs macro.
Its purpose seems to be to typeset text containing special characters in normal
text mode
and thus its purpose is different from \verb and ``verbatm'
macros/environments in LaTeX.

Thank you Georgi.
With the fix \long the output is indeed consistent with the documentation.
I think my use of cat() worked by luck as its output should not have
been rendered.
Would a 'results=tex' (html, text) be possible? or 'results=source' that
could be combined with \if{format}{text}?
This would allow to generate custom Latex, or HTML code, but it might
also be is hazardous...
