Pygments

From a recent SQL entry:

CREATE OR REPLACE function DEVELOP.DateRange(aStart date, aNumber integer)
  return DATE_TABLE_TYPE pipelined
is
  vNextValue date;
begin
  vNextValue  := trunc(aStart);

  for x in 0 .. abs(aNumber)-1 loop
    pipe row(vNextValue +(x * sign(aNumber) ) );
  end loop;
...

This is the home of Pygments. It is a generic syntax highlighter for general use in all kinds of software such as forum systems, wikis or other applications that need to prettify source code. Highlights are:

  • a wide range of common languages and markup formats is supported
  • special attention is paid to details that increase highlighting quality
  • support for new languages and formats are added easily; most languages use a simple regex-based lexing mechanism
  • a number of output formats is available, among them HTML, RTF, LaTeX and ANSI sequences
  • it is usable as a command-line tool and as a library
  • ... and it highlights even Brainf*ck!

Though Pygments has not yet won an award, we trust that you will notice it's a top quality product <wink>.
