I am currently working on a paper in LaTex and wanted to include some source code in it. I didn't want to use the default `verbatim` environment since I wanted to include syntax highlighting as well. Luckily, the `listings` package is an easy and extensible way to include source code inside LaTex documents. To speak first of its extensibility, here is a subset of the arguments that it can possibly take:
|
|
|
|
| Argument | Description |
|
|
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| aboveskip | Amount of space to include above code. |
|
|
| backgroundcolor | Background color |
|
|
| basicstyle | Font-style of code (Color & Size) |
|
|
| belowskip | Amount of space to include below code. |
|
|
| breakatwhitespace | Only break at whitespace (boolean) |
|
|
| breaklines | Automatic Line Breaking (boolean) |
|
|
| commentstyle | Font-style of comments (Color & Size) |
|
|
| frame | Type of frame: `l` for left, `r` for right, `t` for top, `b` for bottom; can use combination of letters or `single`. |
|
|
| keywordstyle | Font-style of keywords (Color & Size) |
|
|
| language | Language of code (for highlighting purposes) |
|
|
| numbers | Where to put the numbers: `none`, `left`, or `right`. |
|
|
| numbersep | How far the line-numbers are from the code. |
|
|
| numberstyle | Font-style of numbers (Color & Size) |
|
|
| stringstyle | Font-style of strings in code (Color & Size) |
|
|
| tabsize | Default tab size in terms of spaces. |
|
|
| title | Show filename included in `\lstinputlistings` or caption. |
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of code that I used in a paper
|
|
|
|
```latex
|
|
\usepackage{color}
|
|
\usepackage{listings}
|
|
\definecolor{keyblue}{rgb}{0.1, 0.1, 0.6}
|
|
\definecolor{dkgreen}{rgb}{0,0.6,0}
|
|
\definecolor{gray}{rgb}{0.5,0.5,0.5}
|
|
\definecolor{stringcol}{rgb}{0.58,0.4,0.1}
|
|
|
|
\lstset{frame=l,
|
|
language=Python,
|
|
aboveskip=3mm,
|
|
belowskip=3mm,
|
|
columns=flexible,
|
|
basicstyle={\small\ttfamily},
|
|
numbers=left,
|
|
numberstyle=\tiny\color{gray},
|
|
numbersep=2mm,
|
|
keywordstyle=\color{keyblue},
|
|
commentstyle=\color{dkgreen},
|
|
stringstyle=\color{stringcol},
|
|
breaklines=true,
|
|
tabsize=4
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
\begin{lstlisting}
|
|
def greeting():
|
|
return "Hello!"
|
|
|
|
# Printing the greeting to the screen
|
|
print(greeting())
|
|
\end{lstlisting}
|
|
```
|
