Consider the following input. ``` \input texinfo Test Test Test Test Test @verb{@foo@bar bar bar `doodle' doo tiddle di tiddle toggle di toggle dum di dum @} Test @bye ``` (This is a first long line, with a line break after the first 'dum'.) Is the attached result really the desired output? As you can see, (1) ` and ' are changed to curly quotes, (2) the text gets hyphenated, and (3) the line break gets obeyed. IMHO, (1) shouldn't happen. While it can be configured with `txicodequoteundirected` and `txicodequotebacktick`, it changes the input without these two flags set. Note also that this is a behaviour different from `texi2any --html`, which doesn't convert the input to curly quotes even if the two flags are not set. Item (2) is really bad, since it inserts a character, making it no longer verbatim. I think (3) is debatable, but given that `@verb` is intended to be used within a paragraph, I suggest that line breaks are not obeyed, as an exception to the verbatimness – similar to the HTML output, which doesn't obey the line break either.
