Subject: [PATCH 1/3] howto: Update Answer to QQZ 1.3 to mention inline QQA is not easy
The macro \QuickQuizAnswer{} defined in qqz.sty currently discards
its argument. If you modify it to enable inline QQA, pdflatex will
end up in error due to verbatim contents and other fragile elements
within macro arguments.
Appendix E's code (qqz.tex) works because the macros \QuickQ{}
and \QuickA{} have no argument.
