General ⇒ listings | Appendix with custom Setup for Code Listings

[Superfox_il_Volpone]

Hi guys,

first topic here. I am a newbie, attempting to end my first report.

I need to insert C++ code in the appendix, and what I'd like to obtain is to have a particular style for the lstlisting environment (for C++ and with smaller font) only for the appendix, while preserving the unspecialised style for the rest of the document.

Another nice feature would be having a different margin for the pages in the appendix. What is the solution?

Regarding the listings package, you can use \lstset anywhere in the document, and it will affect only the following listings. See documentation for more information.

Changing the margins in the appendix could be done with the geometry package, or possibly through a different construction depending on the document class you use.

A small example of how this could be done:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage{listings}
\geometry{margin=2in}

\begin{document}
\begin{lstlisting}
  program hello
    implicit none
      
    print *, 'Hello World'
  end program
\end{lstlisting}

\newgeometry{margin=0.1in}
\clearpage
\lstset{
  language=[95]fortran,
  basicstyle=\small\ttfamily,
  keywordstyle=\bfseries,
  frame=single,
}
\begin{lstlisting}
  program hello
    implicit none
      
    print *, 'Hello World'
  end program
\end{lstlisting}

\end{document}
