+GNU Source-highlight
+
+This program, given a source file, produces a document with syntax highlighting.
+It also provides a C++ highlight library.
+
+Source-highlight reads source language specifications dynamically, thus it can
+be  easily  extended  (without  recompiling  the  sources)  for  handling  new
+languages. It also reads output format specifications dynamically, and thus it
+can  be  easily  extended  (without  recompiling the sources) for handling new
+output formats. The syntax for these specifications is quite easy (take a look
+at the manual).
+
+Source-highlight is a command line program, and it can also be used as a CGI.
+
+Notice  that  source-highlight  can also be used as a formatter (i.e., without
+highlighting): you  can,  for instance, format a txt file in HTML (and it will
+take care of translating special characters, such as, <, >, &).
+
+A common example:
+  less /usr/src/linux/kernel/panic.c
+
+to tune the less, add in your .bash_profile these lines:
+  export LESSOPEN="| /usr/bin/src-hilite-lesspipe.sh %s"
+  export LESS=' -R '
