Why \newenvironment ?
\newcommand will work fine, here is mine which provides the same style
Format 2
CharStyle Identifier
LatexType Command
LatexName mycode
LabelFont
Family Typewriter
Color blue
EndFont
Preamble
\providecommand{\mycode}[1]{\texttt{#1}}
EndPreamble
End
I had to use \providecommand instead of \newcommand, for some reason
that I don not recollect.
