Xpand in Latex listings [message #538361]

Dear Xpand Gurus,
maybe better: dear Latex Gurus in the lines of Xpand users,

we have the weird idea to do some publications in *Latex* which display
Xpand listings using the lstlistings package.

Due to multiple reasons definition of a proper syntax highlighting in
Latex is rather difficult. The reasons are below.

Does anybody has a language/style definition for Xpand that does proper
rendering of Xpand files for lstlistings?

And please: comments like "don't use latex" or "do a screenshot" are of
little help. As I hear from Latex people: "don't use such a strange
language like Xpand!" :-)

Problems:

* Guillemots are not supported in UTF8 in lstlistings (workarounds:
use escape char or lstinputlisting with latin1 encoding)
* Generated Code-Strings like C or Java Code is displayed in
Sring-Color. However, it's difficult to specify "everything except Xpand
tags" as String in lstlistings.
* If the point above is not solvable, it's difficult to distinguish
between keywords in Xtend and the target language like "if", "else",
"switch"...

Any insights?

Cheers,
Hauke

Hello Hauke,

Maybe you have found a solutions to your issue, anyway, I paste here a link to one web where anybody can get a .tex and .sty files for use with Xpand and LaTex.

Xpand and LaTeX are friends!
