That looks promising. I am going to be lazy here, and speculate (since I am really supposed to be doing something else right now):
I wonder if anyone knows the pygments people? I imagine there's some minor issues keeping this from being a simple drop-in into the official pygments code base. That looks to be at https://bitbucket.org/birkenfeld/pygments-main/issues but ... I am ignorant here. (Meanwhile, I am glad that someone got J support into github, however they managed to get that to happen.)
