I mean to have commands typed by user in bold and everything else in normal, with italicizing some keywords (I am thinking about Python now). Listings can do some pretty-printing for you. Bring up the settings for your listing, and set the language to "Python". This should get you nice syntax highlighting - in the output, not in the LyX editor. The automatic higlighting don't differentiate between user typed stuff and other stuff though. So you may have to use "bold" manually. The rules for syntax higlighting _can_ be adapted, but that is only worth the effort if you have lots of code to list. Helge Hafting

Displaying block of code
Please for give me for this very simple minded question. I am new to this user group and Lyx for that matter. I like to know if there are any commands that I can use to display block of codes and commands. I do not want to use the same font and style of ordinary text and I would like to keep these code blocks together . By that I mean I do not want half the code in one page and the other have in another page. Many thanks in advance, Artimess
