Change highlight colors in minted

14.3k views Asked by At

I was setting up a nice environment to present my code in printed documentations. First I was using the lstlisting package for Latex but then I stumbled upon minted.

minted is really great, but is there a way to change the highlight colors?

Since minted uses the Pygments library, I assume Pygments is the key to the color, but I haven't found it yet.

Could anyone explain how it can be done or post a link that shows how it's done?

You want

\usemintedstyle{<name>}

where you can get <name> by doing

pygmentize -L styles

at the command prompt/terminal. For example, the minted documentation itself uses the trac style.
