Hi John,

This should be independent of listings and/or minted.

Does the .tex file have
\begin{results}
test
\end{results}
?

If so, then the new results environment should be printed in a shaded
box when LaTeX is done processing it (if your LaTeX distribution has the
framed and xcolor packages).  If not, then you need to use
org-special-blocks.

hth,
Tom
