I need to do the same in DocBook. <para>To print out <computeroutput >hello world</computeroutput>, save the following program and feed it to Ruby. <programlisting >print "Hello world :)\n"</programlisting> </para> Yeah, I know it's not the same (because it'll render the program listing as a block and not inline), but it does have the advantage that you wouldn't need to change your markup if you ended up deciding to use as an example the somewhat less rare case of a program listing that actually spans two or more lines. --Mike
