It depends on whether you want "keywords" (such as "if" or "for") highlighted by a special font. If no, then you can leave the language box at "no language selected". If yes, you want to look for a language that considers the keywords in your pseudocode to be reserved words. You might try Python or maybe sh to start. I typically use "no language" or else experiment. > > Another question: Is it possible to write mathsymbols into this environment? CMD-M (MacOSX) doesn't seem to work... Go to the advanced tab of the listing settings dialog and put mathescape=true in the right side pane. You will need to enter the math in raw LaTeX, not using the math editor. A trick I use is to use the math editor to type the math in a math inset, then copy it and paste it into the listings box. (I still have to supply the dollar signs myself.) /Paul
