<h3>Realistic quotes for verbatim listings</h3>
<p>The <code>cmtt</code> font has &ldquo;curly&rdquo; quotes,
which are pleasing on the eye, but don&rsquo;t really tally with what one
sees on a modern 
<i>xterm</i>.
<p>The appearance of these quotes is critical in program listings,
particularly in those of Unix-like shell scripts.  The
<i>upquote</i> package modifies the behaviour of the
<code>verbatim</code> environment so that the output is a clearer
representation of what the user must type.
