LyX has listings in Inset menu. You receive fully configurable
listings, however if you want floats with captions, you probably need
to write a module.

If you will have exclusively program listings and no algorithm floats, you can
put the listings in algorithm floats and add to your preamble
\floatname{algorithm}{Program Listing}.  That will change the float captions to
"Program Listing 1", "Program Listing 2" etc. in the output (they'll still say
"Algorithm" in the LyX GUI).  Note that if you insert a List of Algorithms, the
heading of that will still use the word "algorithm".

If you want to mix algorithms and program listings, you'll need to declare a new
float class for the program listings and insert the floats using ERT.

Hi, I'm using LyX with the springer LNCS article class. In my previous
work, all the program listings I had to write could reasonably well be
called "algorithms," so I used the algorithm class in a float. This
time, they aren't really algorithms, they're just program listings.
So, I'd the surrounding float to be called "program listing," not
"algorithm."

What to do?
