Stefan Neufeind [2004-05-16 21:48 UTC] Generally the class looks good to me.
Have you evaluated how PHP-specific the code is - or if it could maybe used as a Sourcecode_Beautifier to also highlight C-code, maybe Python, Pascal or the like. I was it uses token_get_all() from PHP - but maybe another tokeniser could be added? Just wondering if this effort was maybe already done e.g. by Greg or Davey when developing their generic Highlighters.
Another thing that I have mixed feelings about are the "filters". I like the approach in general, but I'm not sure it's flexible enough to really fulfill all coding-style-needs that might arise. I had a look at your pear-filter and wonder if it can be flexible enough to even take care of things like "one space after the comma that separates function-parameters" or "no space between functionname and opening parameter-parenthesis" etc.
One minor point I was a bit unsure about when looking at the pear-filter: I can also understand that you might consider putting the vim-line as a header into the source. But imho pasting the ready-filled license-header into the source it not a good idea. And what if I simply forgot the vim-headerline but had LGPL in the code etc.? Then another PHP-license-header will be added. But this is just a minor point of discussion.
Please excuse me for not having a deeper look yet. But hopefully others will comment different aspects soon as well.
As a closing sentence, please let me stress again that I very much appreciate your proposal and would like to see some beautifier like this added to pear. I just wonder if it might be implemented more generic and flexible.

Lukas Smith [2004-05-21 19:36 UTC] would it be possible to make this package compatible with php4 and php5?
