However only \listlistingname seems to work, \listing...

Is there a way to show only leading spaces of a line? I searched the manual of lstlisting, but it seems it did not support this feature. I am type setting a piece of code, using lstlisting with the "showspaces" enabled, it shows all spaces in the code, which messed my eyes (and probably others I guess). Since the code is layouted, I only...
Ever since I've updated to MiKTeX 2.8, xypic does not seem to work, to the point that, if I try build an output PDF with a latex file in which I use xymatrix, for example, I get a fatal error. I've been trying to fix this for several hours to no avail. I've gathered that this is a somewhat well-known bug having to do with the .enc files ...

I've been looking at Philip Bunge's post on how to create a "Tango" style with LaTeX listings, and trying to adapt this to make the default text style white and the background black (this is for slides, not an article!). This is what I added: \definecolor{Black}{gray}{0.0} \definecolor{White}{gray}{0.9} ... \lstset{ basicstyle=\color{...
