Did you find a working solution? I am in the same position; most of my paper is about code and the output it generates.
Psychological methods (an APA journal) has some instructions about this here:
"If you would like to include code in the text of your published manuscript, please submit a separate file with your code exactly as you want it to appear, using ...

I say this without meaning to disrespect anyone, but many academics are not keen programmers - they don't enjoy programming or care about details. Programming isn't what they signed up for, or isn't the main focus of their work. They may see code as a "necessary evil", rather than as the contribution or appreciate its design.

You developed the code as part of your curriculum. It's quite possible that therefore, the source code belongs to the university anyway. This does depend on the laws of the country your university is in.
Also, I don't see what you should be concerned about. Someone else building on your work is exactly how science is supposed to proceed. If I were you, I'd ...
