Here is a sample of the TeX code for this article
after markup by Noosphere:

Given a context-free grammar $(\Sigma,N,P,S)$, a \htmladdnormallink{non-terminal}{http://planetmath.org/encyclopedia/GenerableByAFormalGrammar.html} (a symbol in the \htmladdnormallink{alphabet}{http://planetmath.org/encyclopedia/Alphabet.html} $N$) is always enclosed in \verb.<. and \verb.>. (e.g. \verb\htmladdnormallink{.<expression>}{http://planetmath.org/encyclopedia/Expression.html}

...

Notice how the \verb.stuff. is disrupted. In any case, it should be
easy to fix temporarily by turning off autolinking to the word
"expression" for this entry.

Thanks Joe. This works now... but it would be nice to fix the problem with \verb some day.
