* Package name : libsyntax-ruby Version : 1.0.0 Upstream Author : Jamis Buck <ja...@jamisbuck.org> * URL : http://syntax.rubyforge.org/ * License : BSD Programming Lang: Ruby Description : A simple Ruby syntax highlighting library This is a simple syntax highlighting library for Ruby. It is a naive syntax analysis tool, meaning that it does not "understand" the syntaxes of the languages it processes, but merely does some semi-intelligent pattern matching. There are primarily two uses for the Syntax library: # Convert text from a supported syntax to a supported highlight format (like HTML). # Tokenize text in a supported syntax and process the tokens directly. While there already exist other Ruby syntax highlighting libraries in Debian, this one is a dependency of Cucumber, which I RFP'd (#565769) a while ago and will shortly be converted to an ITP, if not by me then by a colleague. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
