.SH LITERAL MODULE - literal.pm
The literal module prevents macros appearing in literal strings from
being replaced.  A literal string is defined as having the form:

\fI"literal string with\fP \fBmacro\fP \fIin"\fP

In the above example, \fBmacro\fP will not be replaced.

The behaviour of the literal module can be reveresed by defining the
macro \fBLITERAL_REVERSE\fP before loading the module, for example:

filepp -D\fBLITERAL_REVERSE\fP -m literal.pm \fI<files>\fP

This has the effect of only replacing macros which appear in strings.
