 12.3 Avoiding substitution
 ==========================
 
 Keyword substitution has its disadvantages.  Sometimes you might want
 the literal text string `$Author$' to appear inside a file without CVS
 interpreting it as a keyword and expanding it into something like
 `$Author: ceder $'.
 
    There is unfortunately no way to selectively turn off keyword
 substitution.  You can use `-ko' ( Substitution modes) to turn
 off keyword substitution entirely.
 
    In many cases you can avoid using keywords in the source, even
 though they appear in the final product.  For example, the source for
 this manual contains `$@asis{}Author$' whenever the text `$Author$'
 should appear.  In `nroff' and `troff' you can embed the null-character
 `\&' inside the keyword for a similar effect.
 
    It is also possible to specify an explicit list of keywords to
 include or exclude using the `KeywordExpand' option in the
 `CVSROOT/config' file-see  Configuring keyword expansion for
 more details. This feature is intended primarily for use with the
 `LocalKeyword' option-see  Keyword list.
