I wanted to put some python source code in to a presentation i am doing, using Latex beamer. It took me a while to figure out, so i am posting it here.
I used http://pygments.org/, which claims to take almost any language input, and has many output formatters. it can do python code into latex.
There is a bug in the ubuntu version. Some of the colour commands it defines for latex clash with common latex packages. it is fixed in 0.10, so a grabbed the debian package from
http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/python-pygments/download (double click to install).
Now from the command line run
pygmentize -f latex hello.py
(replacing hello.py with the source code you want to put in you latex document).
This outputs (something like)(the forums may mangle this)
\begin{Verbatim}[commandchars=@\[\]]
@PYaD[#!/usr/bin/env python]
@PYay[print] @PYad["]@PYad[hello]@PYad["]
\end{Verbatim}
Those 'PYaD' type things are commands for colours, but latex needs to be told what they mean. if you run
pygmentize -O full -f latex hello.py
you get the full output for a complete document.
The use package, and newcommand lines need to be put in your latex document, between the \documentclass and \begin{document} lines. The UTF-8 bit seems not to be neccessary.
or you can create file called pygments.tex, containing
\usepackage{fancyvrb}

And one more thing. If you are using beamer, then putting a \Verbatim section in a frame can cause trouble. so you need to make a fagile frame with:
