Turn off syntax highlighting in minted?

Question

How do I turn off syntax highlighting in minted?

Defining my DSL with a CFG and then a PEG; and the syntax highlighting is getting in the way.

Wow, looks like the pycon lexer does the trick… – A T Sep 03 '13 at 07:00 — A T, Sep 03 '13 at 07:00

There's a text lexer that highlights nothing.

Too bad this is not listed on the pygments website, so I could not find it there… – rugk Aug 17 '20 at 14:51

I know this is an old question and G. Poore's answer was accepted long ago, however I leave this here in case it saves someone some time:

You could define the following command:

\usepackage[newfloat]{minted}
\usepackage[many]{tcolorbox}
\definecolor{Gray}{gray}{0.9}
\newcommand{\txtmint}[1]{\mintinline[fontsize=\scriptsize, bgcolor=Gray]{text}{#1}}

Which you can just use as: \txtmint{some code without syntax highlighting}.

Within the [] in the definition of the command, you can specify any options you want. With these settings you get something like this:
