Can you send me an example of \verb!%! in use? I will add it to the test case file and look into updating the syntax rules to cover it. After more years than I will admit I have not seen that particular construct. What does it mean?
It's used for inline verbatim, kinda like the larger \begin {verbatim}..\end{verbatim} block. The delimiter is, AFAIK, user- supplied and doesn't have to be |, although you see that mostly. It works like this: \verb|......| Where the ... denote the verbatim stuff. I could also be \verb!some verbatim text! etc.
