Thanks for the suggestion. So for the uninitiated, that would be written as

  @indentedblock
  @verbatim
  @group
  text goes here
  @end group
  @end verbatim
  @end indentedblock

?

Looks like @indentedblock is only in Texinfo >= 5, am I reading that
right? So that might not yet be suitable since many distros and many
Octave users still have Texinfo 4.13.
