About this program:

  • It is extremely slow, it's written to be generic and extensible, not language specific or optimized.
  • You can easily add new syntax support with it, for your own language or some that I didn't include.
  • There are 3 ways to use this program, you can see them below, or use -h / --help to see it.
  • Everything related to my libraries is clean of all warning options on Clang, GCC and Valgrind.

Use:

$ xighlight my_program.ext                   -- "This way, language is selected by the extension."
$ cat my_program.ext | xighlight [extension] -- "You need to specify the language, check -h / --help."
$ xighlight [extension] < my_program.ext     -- "Again, since it's reading from standard stream..."
