I want to include a complete psfonts.map line in a document.
I tried:
\type{augie8r Augie " TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont " <8r.enc <<augie___.pf
b }

but the compile simply stalled with an asterisk. Probably some special 
character in the above string is being interpeted instead of simply being 
typed verbatim.

\starttyping and \stoptyping on the same line worked. 

So there is some difference between \type and \starttyping. There is no 
command that will take arbitrary verbatim text and print it in line.
