framed verbatim text

framed verbatim text

[Jedrzej Nasiadek]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a frame around the verbatim text. The approach that
first came to my mind:
\framed{%
 \starttyping
 quite a lot
 of
 multiline verbatim stuff
 \stoptyping}
doesn't work.

Any ideas how to achieve that (and still have possibility of applying
background to that frame)?

regards,
   Jedrzej

for verbatim that is part of the text flow:

\setupcolors[state=start]

\definetextbackground
   [whatever]
   [state=start,
    before=\blank,
    after=\blank,
    location=paragraph]

\setuptyping
   [before={\starttextbackground[whatever]},
    after={\stoptextbackground}]

\starttext

test

\starttyping
whatever
you want to
do
\stoptyping

test

\stoptext

otherwise use \startframedtext ... \stopframedtext
