title: Org-mode: Verbatim Environments
body: <p>Say I would like to have some text in a verbatim environment in org-mode where <strong>table shortcuts</strong> are disabled. </p>
  
  <p>For example, consider the following text:</p>
  
  <pre><code>|-- 05102013
  |   |-- 1826
  |   |-- 6500
  |   |-- 6501
  |   |-- 6502
  |   |-- 6503
  |   `-- readme
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I put it within an <code>EXAMPLE</code> literal folder:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
  |-- 05102013
  |   |-- 1826
  |   |-- 6500
  |   |-- 6501
  |   |-- 6502
  |   |-- 6503
  |   `-- readme
  #+END_EXAMPLE
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I accidentally press <code>&lt;TAB&gt;</code>  on any line in the text above. org-mode automatically re-organizes the text to make it look like a table:</p>
  
  <pre><code>|------------+---------|
  |            | -- 1826 |
  |            | -- 6500 |
  |            | -- 6501 |
  |            | -- 6502 |
  |            | -- 6503 |
  | `-- readme |         |
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>which I don't want. Does org-mode provide any environments or blocks in which the automatic table-creation mechanism is disabled?</p>
