my one instance of verbatim is fine, but it's outside of the running text. what are we looking for?
@transmetro: I just observed that @Jaklin got errors from the tikz package when trying to use a verbatim-environment (for some reason), but I haven't had time to look into it (or see if it's even reproducible...)
I was finally able to reproduce the bug.
MNWE:
\documentclass{uit-thesis}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\mainmatter
\section{A section}
\lipsum[1-4]
\begin{verbatim}
A
B
C
D
E
\end{verbatim}
\end{document}
It seems that the bug is only present with the newest version of the tikz package (or some other package). The problem is that if a verbatim environment crosses a page boundary where the running head of the first(!) page contains a UiT slash (drawn with tikz), then tikz halts with the following error message:
Sorry, some package has redefined the meaning of the math-mode dollar sign.
This is incompatible with tikz and its calc library and might cause unrecoverable errors.
A more generic MNWE:
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\def\testcatcode{%
\ifnum\catcode`\$=3%
\else
\GenericError{}{Dollar catcode has changed}{}{}
\fi
}%
\newcommand{\printrheadslash}[1][]{
\testcatcode
\typeout{^^J Before ^^J^^J}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\fill[color=black] (0,0) -- (1.15,3.15) -- (1.4,3.15) -- (0.25,0) -- cycle;
\end{tikzpicture}
\typeout{^^J After ^^J^^J}
}
\renewcommand{\sectionmark}[1]{\markboth{}{\printrheadslash}}
\section{A section}
\lipsum[1-4]
\begin{verbatim}
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
\end{verbatim}
\end{document}
Check if using
\begin{verbatim}\end{verbatim}
causes any problems...
