I am using Verbatim to set computer code. One problem I have is with the
quotes. They should all be straight, not curly. The double ones come out ok,
but I cannot get the single ones as straight quotes. They are either open or
close quotes. Is there a way around this? There are hundreds of these in the
text. Thanks in advance.

I am working in a Mac environment (Textures). When I use the upquote package
I get this error.

Font TS1/cmr/m/n/10.95=tcrm1095 at 10.95pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file
not found.

Is there another way around this?

Install the missing fonts. They are part of the ec-fonts. And I wonder
a bit, that are not installed as default. Do you get an error if you do

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
test
\end{document}

?

You can also use the lmodern fonts.

Hello,

This is the error I get with the above. I have the cmr font loaded.

No, with T1-encoding the ec-fonts are used. You quite obviously don't
have them. I don't know how you can install packages with textures. But
you should try to get the ec or the lmodern fonts.
