begin_src "generic source code"

begin_src "generic source code"

[Robert Klein]

Hi all,

is there a way to include generic source code in an org document?

I'm trying to put excerpts from configuration files into an org document.

However, if I leave the programming language out of the #+begin_src and
export to LaTeX or HTML, the text is rendered just like any other  
paragraph;
it is neither a <pre> block in HTML nor an lstlisting in LaTeX.

Currently I'm setting the programming language to sh. This gives some
funny colors in the HTML export, however.

Is there another way to get generic source excerpts into HTML <pre>-blocks
and LaTeX lstlistings?

Thanks a lot
Robert

Have you tried #+begin_src conf ?

Conf-mode seems to reasonably support quite a few configuration file
modes, and I suppose it ought to handle your highlighting (etc) needs
in org-mode fairly well.

Maybe one of these fits your needs:

#+begin_example
#+begin_quote

hth,

Thank you very much.  I forgot there's emacs around org-mode...

Best regards

Thanks, #+begin_example works and even uses lstlistings in LaTeX. (I
remember different from a couple of weeks ago.  Probably something
in my .emacs.)

Using both "#+begin_src conf" for real configuration files and
"#+begin_example" e.g. for a pxelinux message file will do the
job as I want.

Thank you very much
Robert
