LaTeX Django template custom language for listings

Question

I'm using Listings package to insert python and javascript code into my thesis. This package has a lot of languages but not Django Template.

Someone has yet defined that custom language, or there's another method to include it, as pretty as would be with listings?

The Ruby equivalent of Django template language is called Liquid. You could search for that, although "liquid latex" gives entirely useless results... — Thomas, Feb 11 '12 at 15:08
If "Django template" is the language mentioned here, it looks very much like HTML (for which there exists a language=HTML style in listings). — Werner, Feb 12 '12 at 16:07
@Werner It is the language mentioned in your link. However, even though it is mostly HTML it has variables, filter, tags, etc. I think he also wants these specific Django template syntax highlighted. — benregn, Feb 13 '12 at 07:39

If you want to get more syntax highlighting than is provided by the HTML style of listings then you could do one of the following:

Extend the HTML style with the extra Django template keywords you need. See Extend a language with additional keywords?
Define a new language style in listings. See section 4.18 Language Definition in the listings manual.
Explore a more powerful syntax highlighting package like minted. minted includes support for regular Django templates (html+django) and for templates written in Jinja (html+jinja). See answer to Listings alternative
