jambonrose/latex-code-example

A set of example LaTeX files to quickstart proper source code display and formatting. Demonstrates verbatim, listings, and minted packages.

latex-code-example

This project is meant to help jump start writers looking to display source code in LaTeX documents. The project provides a set of TeX files and a PDF of the output of said TeX files. The intention is that a reader may view the various code listing demonstrations in the PDF, and then read, learn, or simply copy the LATEX necessary to display their code in the same manner. Basic knowledge of LATEX is assumed.

The expected_output.pdf file is the place to start.

To test your system and verify it can output the same, please run make when in the project directory, then then compare expected_output.pdf to the newly created generated_output.pdf

latex-code-example's Issues

Caption Spacing

Caption spacing is a not consistent.

In particular, the caption spacing on minted listings is very large, and takes up more space than it should. It would be desirable for these to look more like the lstlisting example

Perhaps related to this is the gap between the caption and the code in the minted macro example.

Aside Box Example

While the aside box demonstration is useful, does it belong in this project?

CTAN Links for Minted

Several of the packages in the document feature links to their CTAN documentation, but minted does not. This should be fixed.
