<verbatim style="color:#00a;border:solid thin;background: #ffb">
   some text
   styled
</verbatim>

Answer

This is not supported in TWiki. You could hack this as a new rule in getRenderedVersion of TWiki.pm. This is the code (not tested out!!), changes in red:

        if( m|<verbatim([^>]*)>|i ) {
            s|<verbatim([^>]*)>|<pre$1>|goi;
            $insideVERBATIM = 1;
        }

This code will not go into the TWiki core.
