+============================
+Using Pygments with MoinMoin
+============================
+
+From Pygments 0.7, the source distribution ships a `Moin`_ parser plugin that
+can be used to get Pygments highlighting in Moin wiki pages.
+
+To use it, copy the file `external/moin-parser.py` from the Pygments
+distribution to the `data/plugin/parser` subdirectory of your Moin instance.
+Edit the options at the top of the file (currently ``ATTACHMENTS`` and
+``INLINESTYLES``) and rename the file to the name that the parser directive
+should have. For example, if you name the file ``code.py``, you can get a
+highlighted Python code sample with this Wiki markup::
+
+ {{{
+ #!code python
+ [...]
+ }}}
+
+where ``python`` is the Pygments name of the lexer to use.
+
+Additionally, if you set the ``ATTACHMENTS`` option to True, Pygments will also
+be called for all attachments for whose filenames there is no other parser
+registered.
+
+You are responsible for including CSS rules that will map the Pygments CSS
+classes to colors. You can output a stylesheet file with `pygmentize`, put it
+into the `htdocs` directory of your Moin instance and then include it in the
+`stylesheets` configuration option in the Moin config, e.g.::
+
+ stylesheets = [('screen', '/htdocs/pygments.css')]
+
+If you do not want to do that and are willing to accept larger HTML output, you
+can set the ``INLINESTYLES`` option to True.
