QLColorCode

===========

<http://code.google.com/p/qlcolorcode/>

This is a Quick Look plugin that renders source code with syntax highlighting,

using the Pygments library: <http://pygments.org>

To install the plugin, just drag it to /Library/QuickLook or ~/Library/QuickLook.

You may need to create that folder if it doesn't already exist.

If you want to change the style of the syntax highlighting, take a look at

colorize.sh in the bundle's Resources folder. I'm using a slightly modified

version of the autumn style called nautumn.

Pygments can handle lots and lots of languages, but this plugin will only be

invoked for file types that the OS knows are type "source-code". Since the OS

only knows about a limited number of languages, I've added Universal Type

Identifier (UTI) declarations for several "interesting" languages. If I've

missed your favorite language, take a look at the Info.plist file inside the

plugin bundle and look for the UTImportedTypeDeclarations section. I

haven't added all the languages that Pygments can handle because it's rumored

that having two conflicting UTI declarations for the same file extension can

cause problems.

To build from source, you need the Pygments library. Download the .tar.gz

version of their source and uncompress it somewhere, then make a symbolic link

to that location from ./pygments-src

After that you should be able to build as usual from Xcode.

As an aside, by changing colorize.sh you can use this plugin to render any file

type that you can convert to HTML. Have fun, and let me know if you do anything

cool!
