I noticed several places in the wiki talking about similar ideas, so I decided to put a page here to point to what I am working on.

I have copied otl.pm and am wrapping source-highlight (why this instead of vim highlight, I dunno, I must be a real emacs guy). You can find more or less the latest version on my wiki. You must specify highlight_lang=>"foo,bar" in your setup file. where foo and bar are the (source-supported) languages you want to highlight

Issues

  • I would like to have a link to the raw source; using will_render() and then copying the file may work. The discussion in [[plugins/contrib/texinfo]] seems relevant.

  • the common case of foo.c and foo.h breaks because they both generate page working/dir/foo. It looks to me like ikiwiki is hardcoded to strip the extension in pagename() (IkiWiki.pm). This problem with sourcehighlight needs to be fixed before it is very useful.
