Introduction

With Text_Highlighter it is possible to create syntax highlighted versions of different file formats.

Currently, the following formats are supported:

• ABAP

• C++

• CSS

• output of diff(1)

• DTD

• HTML

• Java

• Javascript

• MySQL

• Perl

• PHP

• Python

• Ruby

• sh

• SQL

• VBScript

• XML

There are different options for getting the results of the highlighting, through the use of renderers. The list of renderers is as follows.

• Array

• Console

• HTML - using span-tags containing a CSS class name, this is the default renderer

• HTMLTags - using simple set of tags, only B, I and U, useful for devices that support only a subset of HTML (example is an iPod)

• JSON

• XML
