I don't use anything special, just the verbatim environment is fine for my purposes. But you might like the listings package which iirc has syntax highlighting built-in for python. ah, yes: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Packages/Listings There's also the 'fancyvrb' package: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/fancyvrb good luck, --Tim -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
