pygmentize is the command-line interface for the Pygments syntax highlighting library. It reads source code files and outputs syntax-highlighted versions in various formats including terminal ANSI colors, HTML, LaTeX, RTF, and SVG, supporting over 500 programming languages and markup formats.
The tool auto-detects the input language from file extensions or can be specified explicitly with -l. Output format is set with -f, and visual themes are controlled with -S for generating CSS stylesheets. pygmentize is widely used for generating highlighted code in documentation, blogs, and presentations.
