I'm happy to announce the second public release of Pygments, the
generic Python syntax highlighter.
Download it from <http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/Pygments>, or
look at the demonstration at <http://pygments.pocoo.org/demo>.
News
----
The new features since 0.5.1 include:
* New lexers: Scheme, Bash, Apache configs, Myghty templates, Groff.
* New RTF formatter.
* Added option for the HTML formatter to write the CSS to an external file
in "full document" mode.
* Improved guessing methods for various lexers.
* Support for guessing input encoding added.
* Encoding support added: all processing is now done with Unicode strings,
input and output are converted from and optionally to byte strings.
* License change to BSD.
In other news, the Trac 0.11 trunk already includes support for Pygments as
the default highlighting library.

* a number of output formats is available, presently HTML, LaTeX, RTF
and ANSI sequences
