\jlinl is fragile about jlcode HOT 6 CLOSED

Thanks for all your reporting, @phipsgabler
I have no clue what happens here yet, but I will have a close look at it when updating the package at around the end of the month.

The same holds for SSA variables: \jlinl{%i} is still tokenized as a comment, not finishing the group.

I guess it has to do with \lstinline not liking being wrapped, since it's really a verbatim command. Let's look at the code:

\newcommand{\jlinl}[1]{%
\lstinline[language=julia,style=jlcodestyle,
basicstyle=\jlinlfont,basewidth=\jlinlem]^^a7#1^^a7}

I remember having problemes with that kind of construction long time ago. What are the ^^a7 tokens, BTW?

Maybe implementing \jlinl by \lstMakeShortInline helps?

Might be, definitley worth checking it out.

Well, \lstinline requires a delimiting character for the code, which can be choosen by the user. Usually ! is used for that job. However I wanted to use a character that is not used in Julia either, in order to avoid trouble since otherwise code with ! could not be displayed correctly. I decided to go for §, but it do not work, when using it directly. Hence I decoded the § as ^^a7, which seemed to work out without causing trouble (see this article)

Maybe xparse works, see here.

I think one cannot really get rid of this problem. Some way or the other we will always be in trouble.
Hence I decided to go with a solution that gives a hint in the manual. I think that should be sufficient.
