Time to take a step back and ask for recommendations on how to solve in-line code issues I'm having












0














First off, my document is created in markdown and processed by pandoc to LaTeX format. This is then processed to PDF format using pdflatex. In-line code blocks have the following requirements (all inline code statements are enclosed in a single back quote):




  1. Single words, even if they are combined words like listchildren, word will not be word wrapped.

  2. Very long shell commands may or may not contain file names with full paths that can be very long themselves and have underscores. These full path filenames will not necessarily be broken up at just a space character, but also a forward slash /.

  3. There should be an option to be able to use a special character to indicate where a wrapping should be done. but not displayed even when not used to cause a long string wrap.

  4. Inline code will have a gray background, but either no border or one that is the same color as the background.


Since I'm using pandoc for this, pandoc uses the texttt for these kinds of items. Therefore, we need to probably redefine texttt do what we need to have it do.



Is this doable? How difficult would it be? I'm able to do items #1 and #4, but not #2 and #3. I have not even tried #3. When I tried #2, I lost #4 and the _ characters showed up. Any help or directions would be most helpful.
