startyping modification

startyping modification

[David Arnold]

All,

I have:

\starttyping
y = x.^2 -2*x - 3
\stoptyping

I'd like, just this one time, to typeset this so it fall in the middle of
the page, with a slightly enlarged fontsize.

What's the best way to do this?

What is "the middle of the page"? centered vertically and
horizontally? 

If only horizontal alignment: use

\startalignment[middle]
\starttyping
y = x.^2 -2*x - 3
\stoptyping
\stopalignment

Patrick,

Thanks. Yes, I just want to align horizontally on the page.

In my preamble, I have:

\setuptyping
[before={\startframedtext[width=\makeupwidth,
      background=screen,
      backgroundscreen=0.8]},
  after={\stopframedtext},
  color=darkred]


Later in the document I have:

\startalignment[middle]
\switchtobodyfont[big]
\starttyping
y = x.^2 -2*x - 3
\stoptyping
\stopalignment

However, the \setuptyping seems to override here, as the verbatim text is
not centered horizontally.

Can you help?
