Getting rid of listings in favor of minted for LaTeX code blocks #99

Closed marco-m closed 9 years ago

marco-m commented 9 years ago

Hi, mmd uses the listings package to format code blocks. Listings is quite limited; in particular it doesn't do colors. I would propose replacing listings with minted (https://github.com/gpoore/minted), which uses the very powerful Python library Pygments. The only problem is that it adds the dependency on Pygments, which for me is not a problem, but you might consider it so. Anyway, I will add support to it and then send a pull request, so you'll tell me if it makes sense or not. And, thanks for mmd! :-)

I don't want to add more dependencies to MMD, but others may certainly be interested if you share your work.

Sure, I understand your point of view.
