I've been using Scribble on top of LaTeX/Beamer for course slides. I
spent some time trying to get the listings package to work without too
much effort, and gave up. It's very sensitive, as LaTeX code can be. My
sense is that it would require some work down at the rendering level in
Scribble/Racket (or, worse, some LaTeX macro hacking), but I'd love to
be proven wrong.
Those of us who are interested in using Scribble in this fashion should
maybe try to figure out some way to coordinate efforts and share tips. --PR
