What's the best way to mark up a code listing if I want it to appear with
numbered lines and I want to refer to specific line numbers without hard
coding the line numbers? If I write "In line 25, the <literal>free</literal>
command deallocates the memory" and then insert more code above line 25, I
don't want to have to change that "25" by hand.
I'm assuming it's some appropriate subelement of programlisting and then an
xref to that, but I can't figure out what.
thanks,
