LaTeX ignoring tabs in verbatim

Question

Hi,

I need to write a whole bunch of pseudo code and I got annoyed using all the "\ >\=" with the \begin{tabbing} command, so I decided to use \begin{verbatim} instead. This was working fine for me until I got to a point in which I had to indent 4 times in a row. When I get to 4 tabs in a row it puts the "character" >> at the beginning of my line and then when I generate the pdf it is not indented at all. How do I get latex to stop reformatting my lines when I use verbatim?

I don't know in what code realm you are working or if this will do any better, but have you checked out the listings algorithm or program packages? They may have better magic in them.
