new LaTeX package "jvlisting"

By Jochen Voss, on 2011-07-27

A while ago I finished my first home-made LaTeX package. The new package is called "jvlisting" and provides a replacement for LaTeX's verbatim environment.

This package provides the LaTeX environment listing, an alternative to the built-in verbatim environment. The listing environment is specially taylored for including listings of computer program source code into documents. The main advantages over the original verbatim environment are that

• The listing environment automatically fixes leading whitespace so that the environment and program listing can be indented with the rest of the document source, and
• listing environments may easily be customised and extended.

You can download the package and its documentation from my webserver or from the jvlisting page at the Common TeX Archive Network (CTAN). I'd be happy if you could give my package a try. Comments about jvlisting are very welcome!
