annotations added by the documentor; they are not part of the original
listing.
Processing expectations
Formatted inline. In verbatim environments like
programlisting, which are often presented in a
fixed-width font, they may get special typographic treatment, such as
italics.
If several lineannotations occur in the same
listing, they may be aligned horizontally.
