Writing a LaTeX document with Python code snippets

I am using LaTeX to write a document about Python. This document will contain code snippets (examples).

I could use the v开发者_JAVA技巧erbatim environment, but before I embark onto it, I'd like to know if you are aware of any LaTeX style file which provides an environment for Python code. Syntax highlight would be a plus.

Thanks.

Edit:

I must point out that the package minted is exactly what I was looking for. It has beautiful syntax highlighting and it is very simple to use. Check this question to know more about it.

Take a look at this question Source code highlighting in LaTeX for more information.

You should also look at the pygments program for source code highlighting.

I personally use Emacs org-mode with #+BEGIN_SRC python and let htmlize.el take care of the highlighting during export. You can see a sample here (This is an HTML export but with the latest version of org-mode, it can use the listings LaTeX package to colourise exported PDFs too).

Use Docutils and RST for this. It has Latex with Syntax highlighting.

The LaTeX Listings package seems to know about Python. Worth taking a look at.
