Text Formatting ⇒ lstinline from listings package with escapechar

[forthosewhohaveheart]

Hi, why can't is use the escapechar argument in \listinline from the listings package. I tried

Code: Select all

 \lstinline[escapechar=\#]{#\textbackslash#}

but it doesn't work. The next one

Code: Select all

\begin{lstlisting}[escapechar=\#]
#\textbackslash#
\end{lstlisting}

works indeed. I didn't read anything about this in the documentation. Is this just a really bad feature or am I doing something wrong?
