		kazinator on Dec 8, 2016 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Don Libes' Expect: A Surprisingly Underappreciated... I'm calling expect dynamically out of CGIT (the git repo serving CGI program). The expect script runs Vim in pseudo-terminal, to load a source file and syntax-colorize it via :TOHtml. That HTML is then integrated into the file view generated by CGIT. This is not done for every file type; a master shell script dispatches different coloring strategies based on suffix.

You know, cgit does come with two example syntax highlighting scripts... :)

That's correct. (I think the old version I'm using maybe only with one.) That script is what I hooked my custom logic into.
