GNU Source-highlight 2.9 has been released. It is available from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/src-highlite/ and mirrors of that site (see
list of mirror sites at http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html).

GNU Source-highlight, given a source file, produces a document with
syntax highlighting.

You can also find details about new features of source-highlight on my
blog, in this area:
http://tronprog.blogspot.com/search/label/source-highlight.

At the moment this package can handle

* C/C++
* C#
* Bib
* Bison
* Caml
* Changelog
* Css
* Diff
* Flex
* Fortran
* Haxe (new)
* Html
* ini files (new)

* KDE desktop files (new)
* Latex

* lsm files (Linux Software Map) (new)
* Lua

* Perl
* PHP
* Postscript
* Prolog
* Properties files (new)
* Python

* Shell
* S-Lang
* Sql
* Tcl
* XML

as source languages, and

HTML
XHTML
ANSI color escape sequences
LaTeX
Texinfo
DocBook (new)

as output format.

Source-highlight depends on the Boost regex library
(http://www.boost.org/) so you need to install this library (boost
libraries are usually shipped with most distributions).

Source-highlight can also generate cross references; in order to do this
it relies on GNU Ctags, http://ctags.sourceforge.net.

Version 2.9

* language definition for C (not C++) files
* language definition for properties files
* language definition for KDE desktop and ini files
* language definition for lsm files (Linux Software Map)
* language definition for rpm spec files
* language definition for Haxe files (thanks to Jos Hirth)
* style.defaults for associating a style for an element (whose style is
not specified) to the style of another element
* highlight some KDE programming files (e.g., .rc, .kcfg, etc.)
* correctly highlight for less when filenames contain paths
* fixed a bug in file inclusion of langdef files
* fixed compilation problems for fileutil.cc (thanks to Adrian Reber)
* xml elements are correctly recognized when containing .
(thanks to Toby White)
* references for xhtml output files
