well, the real kludge here is of course that you're writing your own 
colorizer, when you can just go and grab Pygments:

    http://pygments.org/

or, if you prefer something tiny and self-contained, something like the 
colorizer module in this directory:

    http://svn.effbot.org/public/stuff/sandbox/pythondoc/

(the element_colorizer module in the same directory gives you XHTML in 
an ElementTree instead of raw HTML, if you want to postprocess things)
