You can use

\vbox{\begin{verbatim}
[ verbatim material ]
\end{verbatim}}

The vbox is a TeX primitive command that work also in LateX. Maybe there
is a more LaTeX way to do this? But this works

Of course, there is the environment "minipage".
Also \samepage could be tried:

\begingroup
\samepage
\begin{verbatim}
...
\end{verbatim}
\endgroup

If I remember correctly, verbatim takes account of \interlinepenalty so
\samepage should work.

{\samepage
\begin{verbatim}
.
.
.
\end{verbatim}
}

Or maybe, more properly (not tested, though)

% Preamble

\usepackage{verbatim}
\newcounter{interlinepenalty}
\newenvironment*{nbverbatim}{%
\setcounter{interlinepenalty}{\interlinepenalty}%
\interlinepenalty = 10000
\verbatim
}{%
\endverbatim
\interlinepenalty = \value{interlinepenalty}%
}

% In the body

Not related to the verbatim package, but to a problem I had when using
\samepage multiple times to ensure no pagebreaks occur inside sections
is that LaTeX somehow related the different \samepage commands even
when they were embraced by braces! I wanted LaTeX to insert pagebreaks
in between sections if necessary, the result was that all the sections
were forced on one page, overflowing it. The solution I found:

\newenvironment{unbreakable}{\samepage}{\pagebreak[0]}
\begin{unbreakable}
\section{A section in which no pagebreaks occur}
Everything written in this section will be forced on a page. LaTeX is
allowed to put pagebreaks before or after the section to make it fit
\end{unbreakable}

% Opportunity to break here

\begin{unbreakable}
\section{Another section}
Also this section is immune for pagebreaks
\end{unbreakable}

Best regards,
Birdy

This certainly happens. You have to know how to use \sampepage right,
and it is a bit odd. The control of breaking within a paragraph depends
on whether \samepage is in effect _when_the_paragraph_ends_!

Also, \samepage does not prevent breaks between regular paragraphs.

You will have better results putting \filbreak before the sectioning
commands (or in their definitions), and avoiding \samepage. It works
better.

Should be

\newenvironment{unbreakable}{\par\samepage}{\par\pagebreak[0]}
