Simple tool to show code with syntax highlight.

Based on pygments. Also uses click, so make sure you have those two installed.

It's a single-file project, so copy it anywhere. I have it symlinked as ~/bin/hl.

./source_highlight.py -n ./source_highlight.py

Will display its own source code, with syntax highlight, using a pager.

The -n option enables showing line numbers.

File format is guessed by extension, but you can tweak things:

% hl --help
Usage: hl [OPTIONS] INPUT_FILE

Options:
  -l, --lexer TEXT
  -s, --style TEXT
  -f, --formatter TEXT
  -n, --line-numbers
  --list-lexers
  --list-styles
  --list-formatters
  --help                Show this message and exit.
