I'm trying to get some console output in my homework. I put it in a listings environment but I want it to be centered horizontally on the page.
The only thing I get centered is the caption ;-/
\begin{minipage}{1\textwidth}
\begin{center}
\begin{lstlisting}
a | b | q | u | s | v | t
----------------------------------------
78 | 21 | 1 | | 1 | 1 | -1
21 | 15 | 3 | 1 | -3 | -1 | 4
15 | 6 | 1 | -3 | 4 | 4 | -5
6 | 3 | 2 | 4 | -11 | -5 | 14
3 | | 2 | -11 | 26 | 14 | -33
----------------------------------------
\end{lstlisting}
\end{center}
\end{minipage}
