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.
