The repository includes a great configuration for shown listings in LaTeX with the option to show only a specific range of line numbers.

This is the code in LaTeX, do not forget to include the 'lst-config.tex' file in your folder:
```
\documentclass{book}
\input{lst-config}
\begin{document}
Here is a code example with showing only specific ranges:

\lstinputlisting[label=ls:figure, caption=Using the configuration., linerange={1-5, 18-23, 39},matchrangestart=t]{code.txt}
\end{document}
``` 

This is the source called in LaTeX exmaple:

```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
