General ⇒ Listings: How to support hyphens in keywords?

[benowar]

I read that for listings you can not have a "-" inside a keyword. But I want to emphasize a property list that looks like this:

Foo-Bar : Value

Any ideas how to set "Foo-Bar" as keyword?

Thanks,
Ben

From listings documentation:

Another problem: by default some characters are not allowed inside keywords, for example ‘-’, ‘:’, ‘.’, and so on. The reference guide covers this problem by introducing some more keys, which let you adjust the standard character table appropriately.

So, read the section "Reference Guide"

Thanks! For some reason I thought the reference manual was separate. The solution is to define:

alsoletter={-}
