I regularly use the fancy-verb package
-- which is part of the TeXLive installation -- 
to include program code in my .pdf


%preamble:
\usepackage{fancyvrb}%VerbatimInput 
\fvset{fontsize=\small%
      ,frame=single%
      ,numbers=left}%set FancyVerb defaults

\begin{document}
\VerbatimInput[label=program part 1
              ,frame=single,numbers=left
              ,firstline=1,lastline=50]
              {program.txt}%filename.ext

\VerbatimInput[label=program part 2
              ,frame=single,numbers=left
              ,firstline=51,lastline=100]
              {program.txt}%filename.ext

to get even fancier I put the above in a minipage:

\newcommand{\EchoTextWidth}{0.94\textwidth}%

\begin{minipage}[t]{\EchoTextWidth}%line numbers are inside margin
\VerbatimInput[label=program part 3
              ,firstline=101]
              {program.txt}%filename.ext
\end{minipage}%
