I have a similar structure like this:

\begin{lstlisting}[language=bash]
Family
|-father
|-mother
|-elderson
|-younger son
|-younger daughter
\end{lstlisting}

I need to make "mother" and "younger daughter" words in bold. How can I do it? i followed this Using bold/italic text inside listings?, but could not do it.

Why couldn't you succeed with the linked answer? What error were you getting? – darthbith Sep 18 '13 at 14:18
I am not getting any error. The words are not getting bold. – Zafrullah Syed Sep 18 '13 at 14:19

What font are you using? – karlkoeller Sep 18 '13 at 14:22
i think I am using [utf8]{inputenc}. Is this correct? – Zafrullah Syed Sep 18 '13 at 14:28
That's not a font, that is the encoding of the input file. You should use one of the fonts they list in the linked answer, such as \usepackage{pxfonts} – darthbith Sep 18 '13 at 14:29
ok. i will check that – Zafrullah Syed Sep 18 '13 at 14:33
Is this correct? \lstset{language=bash, basicstyle=\ttfamily, keywordstyle=\bfseries, showstringspaces=false, morekeywords={mother, younger daughter} } – Zafrullah Syed Sep 18 '13 at 14:37
I don't know, did it work? – darthbith Sep 18 '13 at 14:39
No, It didn't work. but i found the solution here. link – Zafrullah Syed Sep 18 '13 at 14:42
Glad you got it figured out! When you tried the first \lstset method, had you put \usepackage{pxfonts} in your preamble? – darthbith Sep 18 '13 at 14:51
No I did not use \usepackage{pxfonts}. I do not know that I have to use that later when Karlkoeller mentioned regarding the font in my document, everything got cleared. – Zafrullah Syed Sep 18 '13 at 19:51
