This software provides syntax highlighting when opening a source file, making it easier to read and edit the code. It offers a convenient way to identify programming language elements with visual cues.
GNU Source-highlight is a reliable software that produces an excellent document with syntax highlighting once a source file is provided. The program reads source language specifications dynamically, making it easy to be extended without any need for recompiling the sources when dealing with new languages. Additionally, with the capability of reading output format specifications dynamically, the software can be quickly modified for handling different output formats without recompiling the sources.
The syntax for these specifications is quite simple, and the manual provides easy guidelines for users to understand. Another added feature in version 2.2 is the ability to generate cross-references, which is made possible with the help of GNU Ctags.
There are several output formats supported by Source-highlight, which include HTML, XHTML, LATEX, TEXINFO, ANSI color escape sequences. Users can easily make use of this feature with less. On the other hand, there are several input languages that the software supports in alphabetical order include C/C++, Bison, Caml, Changelog, Diff, Flex, Fortran, Html, Java, Javascript, Latex, Logtalk, Log files, Lua, ML, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Prolog, Python and Ruby.
In conclusion, GNU Source-highlight is a fantastic tool that provides excellent results when it comes to syntax highlighting. With its dynamic reading features, the software makes it easy for users to extend it effortlessly without any need for recompiling the sources. The software is simple to use with easy syntax guidelines and is compatible with various output formats, making it a must-have tool for developers.
