    Pygments
    ~~~~~~~~

    Pygments is a syntax highlighting package written in Python.

    It aims to be 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, increasing quality by a fair amount
    * support for new languages and formats are added easily
    * a number of output formats, presently HTML, LaTeX and ANSI sequences
    * it is usable as a command-line tool and as a library
    * ... and it highlights even Brainfuck!

    The `Pygments trunk <http://trac.pocoo.org/repos/pygments/trunk#egg=Pygments-dev>`__
    is installable via *easy_install* with ``easy_install Pygments==dev``.
