NOTE:  If you replace texcsstyle={\color{blue}} with  
texcsstyle=*{\color{blue}} the leading \ of each command is also  
considered part of the command, however this is a buggy feature.

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[pdftex]{color}
\usepackage{listings}
\newcommand{\mysyntaxp}[2]{\textcolor{blue}{\textbackslash#1}\textcolor{ 
green}{\{}\textsf{#2}\textcolor{green}{\}}}
\newcommand{\mysyntax}[1]{\textcolor{blue}{\textbackslash#1}}
%%
%% For computer code listings
%%
\newlength{\xleftmargin}
\settowidth{\xleftmargin}{\textbf{99999}}% width of 5 digits in the  
current font.
\newlength{\numbersep}
\settowidth{\numbersep}{\textbf{99}}% width of 2 digits in the current  
font.
\usepackage{listings}
\lstloadlanguages{{[latex]TeX}}
\lstset{language={[latex]TeX}, keywordstyle=\color{blue},  
identifierstyle=\textsf, texcsstyle={\color{blue}},  
commentstyle=\color{red}, showstringspaces=false, showspaces=false,  
showtabs=false, columns=fullflexible, numbers=left, stepnumber=1,  
numberstyle=\normalsize, numbersep=\numbersep,  
xleftmargin=\xleftmargin, tabsize=4,  fontadjust, basewidth=1ex,  
breaklines, moretexcs={numbersep,xleftmargin,  
color,textcolor,mysyntaxp,mysyntax,lstset,lstloadlanguages,lstinputlisti 
ng}}
\begin{document}

\mysyntaxp{textbf}{test} \\

\mysyntax{itshape} \\

\lstinputlisting{Untitled.tex}

\end{document}
