Testing pygments

Originally posted Mar 31, 2007 · 1 min read

This is a test post to see experiment with the code hightlighting output from pygments.org (as recommended by a couple of commenters on my previous post). Pygments produces HTML with CSS-based styling, so I have added a bunch of new styles to my blogger template. And I am including as a sample the same Python code posted earlier with the alternative syntax highlighting tool.

def main(self, *m3ufilenames):
    self.startRSS()
    self.generateChannelInfo()
    for line in fileinput.input(m3ufilenames):
        mp3filename = line.strip()
        if not mp3filename or mp3filename.startswith('#'):
            continue
        self.generateItem(mp3filename)
    self.endRSS()
    return

So, let me know what you think of the 2 methods, and which looks better.
