Welcome!
========
This is the home of Pygments. It is a generic syntax highlighter suitable for
use in code hosting, forums, wikis or other applications that need to prettify
source code. Highlights are:
* a wide range of |language_count| languages and other text formats is supported
* special attention is paid to details that increase highlighting quality
* support for new languages and formats are added easily; most languages use a
simple regex-based lexing mechanism
* a number of output formats is available, among them HTML, RTF, LaTeX and ANSI
sequences
* it is usable as a command-line tool and as a library

----------
Like every open-source project, we are always looking for volunteers to help us
with programming. Python knowledge is required, but don't fear: Python is a very
clear and easy to learn language.
Development takes place on `GitHub <https://github.com/pygments/pygments>`_.
If you found a bug, just open a ticket in the GitHub tracker. Be sure to log
in to be notified when the issue is fixed -- development is not fast-paced as
the library is quite stable. You can also send an e-mail to the developers, see
below.
The authors
-----------
Pygments is maintained by **Georg Brandl**, e-mail address *georg*\ *@*\ *python.org*, **Matthäus Chajdas** and **Jean Abou-Samra**.
Many lexers and fixes have been contributed by **Armin Ronacher**, the rest of
the `Pocoo <https://dev.pocoo.org/>`_ team and **Tim Hatch**.
