I realize this is not an answer to your original question. But have you
considered writing your file in org-mode? Org-mode can export to
several formats, also texi.

Org-mode has this thing called babel
(https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/) which allows you to embed
(and even execute) blocks of code in your document.

>From the manual
(https://orgmode.org/manual/Editing-Source-Code.html#Editing-Source-Code):

Use C-c ' to edit the current code block. It opens a new major mode edit
buffer containing the body of the source code block, ready for any edits.
