Answer 2

When writing about programming languages, there are examples to format as listings. That works fine and produces beautiful results. Sometimes I want to mention the keywords used in the listing further in the text, like that declare that I put in bold italic.

I tried \lstinline but it seems to simply print its argument verbatim without applying the same text formatting as in the listing. Is there any other mechanism to typeset the keywords or short snippets within regular text, while obeying the same language formatting as specified in\lstset
