Basically I want
\mint{python}|'banana'|
to produce straight single quotes, rather than the curly ones it normally produces (in pdflatex
).

You can use the package upquote
. Note the package loads the package textcomp
The package upquote
works also with listings
.
% !TEX program = pdflatex --shell-escape
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{minted}
\usepackage{upquote}
\begin{document}
\mint[fontfamily=tt]{python}|'banana'|
\end{document}
The result:
If you are using pygmentize version 1.6 that the package upquote
can't do its job. To fix this issue you can use the following hack:
\listfiles
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{minted}
\usepackage{upquote}
\AtBeginDocument{%
\def\PYZsq{\textquotesingle}%
}
\begin{document}
\mint[fontfamily=tt]{python}|'banana'|
\end{document}
Note if you are working with XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX the hack isn't needed.
upquote
package modifies all verbatim text (\verb
and the verbatim
environment) to render '
and `
as the upright versions, not the “smart” ‘
and ’
. Since (as I understand it) minted and listings rely on fancyvrb, which itself calls out to verbatim text under the hood, this has the desired effect.
