bashsymbols
I'm typesetting a document with examples of bash code. How do I make the code like
`pwd -P`
appear with the same kind of quotes? I want the readers of the document to be able to copy and paste the code directly into a terminal. Latex is giving me the opening single quote symbol ‘.
Here's an example:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1,OT1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[finnish]{babel}
\begin{document}
«»
\fontencoding{T1}\selectfont
«»
\end{document}
As you can see, the first line has really \ll and \gg, as the guillemets aren't available in the OT1 encoding. In the second line we use a T1-encoded font, which has the guillemets.
So write
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[finnish]{babel}
\begin{document}
«»
\end{document}
and your guillemets will be OK.
Simply add \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} to your preamble. Note that you don't need the upquote package if you load textcomp and set listings' upquote key to true.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage{listings}
\lstset{upquote=true}
\begin{document}
\begin{lstlisting}
echo "Hello, world!"
\end{lstlisting}
\end{document}

You could also use the
literatekey to define literate character replacements:which gives
The copy/paste result from the PDF file is the same for both lines for me. However, note the small spacing difference. I'm not entirely sure which of these spacings is the correct one, but I'm temped to say it's the one of the second line because the
literateexplicitly tellslistingsto treat the replacement as a single character.
