I am writing a programing book and want to have programs that have
been prepared with a text editor included in the book. This is what I
have done so far.
Insert->File->Child Document
File: CodeListings/Test.cpp
Include Type: Program Listing
Caption: My Caption
Label: First Program
More Parameters: numbers=left, frame=tb, caption=b, float
It sort of works but I need assistance.
The caption I have set above does not appear on the bottom as
"caption=b" would suggest.
The label I have set above does not appear anywhere.
I would like the text of the inserted program to have "typewriter"
font and be colored green. How do I do this.
Am I on the right track, is the above the correct way of doing what I
want?
Thank you,
Joe Hesse
Your method of inserting the code is correct. To address your specific
concerns:
* putting the caption on the bottom requires the key/value pair
"caption/pos/=b";
* the label is not supposed to appear anywhere; it is used for
cross-referencing the code elsewhere in the document;
* the key/value pair to use the typewriter font family and color the
code olive ("green" would be too hard to read, I think) would be
"basicstyle={\color{olive}\ttfamily}".
You may need to load the xcolor package (or some alternative) explicitly
in the preamble, if your LyX document does not already use colors elsewhere.
HTH,
Paul
