NAME
     Source-highlight - convert source code to syntax highlighted document

SYNOPSIS
     source-highlight [OPTIONS]... < INPUT_FILE > OUTPUT_FILE

DESCRIPTION
     GNU GNU source-highlight 3.1.9

     Highlight	the  syntax  of a source file (e.g. Java) into a specific format
     (e.g.  HTML)

	    source-highlight   [OPTIONS]...   -i   INPUT_FILE	-o   OUTPUT_FILE
	    source-highlight [OPTIONS]... [FILES]...

     -h, --help
	    Print help and exit

     --detailed-help
	    Print help, including all details and hidden options, and exit

     -V, --version
	    Print version and exit

     -i, --input=FILENAME
	    Input file (default=stdin)

     -o, --output=FILENAME
	    Output  file  (default=stdout,  when  the  third  invocation form is
	    used). If 'STDOUT' is specified, the output is directed to	standard
	    output

     You  can simply specify some files at the command line and also use regular
     expressions (for instance *.java).  In this case the name	for  the  output
     files  will  be  formed  using  the name of the source file with a .EXT ap-
     pended, where EXT is the extension chosen according to  the  output  format
     specified (for instance .html).

     -s, --src-lang=STRING
	    source  language (use --lang-list to get the complete list).  If not
	    specified, the source language will be guessed from the file  exten-
	    sion.

     --lang-list
	    list  all  the supported language and associated language definition
	    file

     --outlang-list
	    list all the supported output language and associated language defi-
	    nition file

     -f, --out-format=STRING
	    output format (use --outlang-list to get the  complete  list)   (de-
	    fault=`html')

     -d, --doc
	    create  an	output	file  that can be used as a stand alone document
	    (e.g., not to be included in another one)

     --no-doc
	    cancel the --doc option even if it is implied  (e.g.,  when  css  is
	    given)

     -c, --css=FILENAME
	    the external style sheet filename.	Implies --doc

     -T, --title=STRING
	    give a title to the output document.  Implies --doc

     -t, --tab=INT
	    specify tab length.  (default=`8')

     -H, --header=FILENAME
	    file to insert as header

     -F, --footer=FILENAME
	    file to insert as footer

     --style-file=FILENAME
	    specify the file containing format options (default=`default.style')

     --style-css-file=FILENAME specify the file containing format options (in
	    css syntax)

     --style-defaults=FILENAME specify the file containing defaults for format
	    options  (default=`style.defaults')

     --outlang-def=FILENAME
	    output language definition file

     --outlang-map=FILENAME
	    output language map file (default=`outlang.map')

     --data-dir=PATH
	    directory  where  language	definition  files  and language maps are
	    searched for.  If not specified these files are searched for in  the
	    current directory and in the data dir installation directory

     --output-dir=PATH
	    output directory

     --lang-def=FILENAME
	    language definition file

     --lang-map=FILENAME
	    language map file  (default=`lang.map')

     --show-lang-elements=FILENAME
	    prints the language elements that are defined

	    in the language definition file

     --infer-lang
	    force  to  infer  source  script language (overriding given language
	    specification)

   Lines:
     -n, --line-number[=PADDING]
	    number all output lines, using the specified padding character  (de-
	    fault=`0')

     --line-number-ref[=PREFIX]
	    number all output lines and generate an anchor,

     made of the specified prefix + the line
	    number  (default=`line')

     Filtering output:

	    Mode: linerange

	    specifying line ranges

     --line-range=STRING
	    generate only the lines in the specified range(s)

     --range-separator=STRING
	    the optional separator to be printed among ranges (e.g., "...")

     --range-context=INT
	    number of (context) lines generated even if not in range

	    Mode: regexrange

	    specifying regular expression delimited ranges

     --regex-range=STRING
	    generate only the lines within the specified regular expressions

   reference generation:
     --gen-references=STRING
	    generate references  (possible values="inline",  "postline",  "post-
	    doc" default=`inline')

     --ctags-file=FILENAME
	    specify  the  file	generated by ctags that will be used to generate
	    references (default=`tags')

     --ctags=CMD
	    how to run the ctags command.  If  this  option  is  not  specified,
	    ctags  will  be executed with the default value.  If it is specified
	    with an empty string, ctags  will  not  be	executed  at  all   (de-
	    fault=`ctags --excmd=n --tag-relative=yes')

   testing:
     -v, --verbose
	    verbose mode on

     -q, --quiet
	    print no progress information

     --binary-output
	    write output files in binary mode

     --statistics
	    print some statistics (i.e., elapsed time)

     --gen-version
	    put source-highlight version in the generated file	(default=on)

     --check-lang=FILENAME
	    only check the correctness of a language definition file

     --check-outlang=FILENAME
	    only check the correctness of an output language definition file

     --failsafe
	    if	no  language  definition  is  found  for the input, it is simply
	    copied to the output

     -g, --debug-langdef[=TYPE]
	    debug a language definition.  In dump mode just dumps all the steps;
	    in interactive, at each step, waits for some input (press  ENTER  to
	    step)  (possible values="interactive", "dump" default=`dump')

     --show-regex=FILENAME
	    show  the  regular	expression automaton corresponding to a language
	    definition file
