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>.
