This is because there is a \blank line preceding the typing, so better is:
\definelabel[programlisting][text=listing,
headstyle=small]
And in my text I write:
\margintitle{\programlisting}
\starttyping
/* first.c : my first C program */
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
puts("Hello Everybody!");
return 0;
}
\stoptyping
However, i would go for:
\definetyping
[listing]
[before=\margintitle{\programlisting}\blank,
after=\blank]
\startlisting
/* first.c : my first C program */
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
puts("Hello Everybody!");
return 0;
}
\stoplisting
Which is (1) more structured, (2) can be adapted without changing the
source, (3) saves keystrokes, and (4) looks nicer in the source code.
