How do I tell LyX (2.3.6) that some inline text is code? In LaTeX it
would be \lstinline`some code`, using the listings package, which I
gather LyX does.
There is an answer at https://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/modules#toc4, but
it includes a dead link.* A web search doesn't turn up the file,
listings.module, anywhere else, or does it seem to be in the Debian
packages in my (old) distribution (Debian 11/bullseye) I use. Other
answers on the net refer to modules that I don't see.
Perhaps it's already built in, but I don't see it mentioned in the
documentation. In particular, I don't know how to indicate that some
text should be in this mode.
More generally, if I have a bunch of special types of text, in LaTeX
I'd define a macro for each. What do I do in LyX?
I realize I could just drop into raw LaTeX/ERB and give the commands
as I would in regular LaTeX, but I am hoping there's something more
elegant.
Thanks.

*The link is to the Max Planck Institute and the author of the code is
Laura Dietz. She is not listed in their current directory, and I
presume all the links to her stuff on
https://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/modules are broken. She appears to have
moved to the University of New Hampshire; I don't see the files there
either.
I don't know about LyX 2.36, but in 2.4.4 you can select the text,
execute Insert > Program Listing, then right-click the listing, click
Settings... and check Inline listing.
