Hello, all--
I just compiled Camomile 0.7.1, and generated the latex documentation
with 'make doclatex'. Much to my surprise, when I attempt to process the
LaTeX file with either the 'latex' or 'pdflatex' program, I get the
following error:
! You can't use `macro parameter character #' in horizontal mode.
<argument> ...n Unicode Technical Report \verb `##
`21
l.9 ...ned in Unicode Technical Report \verb`#`21}
?
! Emergency stop.
<argument> ...n Unicode Technical Report \verb `##
`21
l.9 ...ned in Unicode Technical Report \verb`#`21}
I am using TeXLive 2007.2 ... given the caution with which TeX is
developed, it's hard to believe this is a bug in the TeX distribution.
On the other hand, it's hard to believe that OCamlDoc is generating
incorrect LaTeX code. Maybe some misconfiguration in my TeX
installation? Any hints appreciated.
BTW, if I edit the generated LaTeX file, replacing every instance of
\verb`#` with \#{}, it runs fine.
