Very cool Michael.

FYI, pygments runs in IronPython except for a but in their _automodule class in 
pygments/lexers/__init__.py 
(http://dev.pocoo.org/projects/pygments/browser/pygments/lexers/__init__.py). 
If you comment out the last 6 lines of lexers/__init__.py, pygments will run 
under IronPython, but without the lexer module automodule support. That means 
you have to write

from pygments.lexers.agile import PythonLexer

instead of

from pygments.lexers import PythonLexer

Dino assures me this bug is fixed and will be available in source "soon" - 
definitely by RC.

Subject: [IronPython] FlowDocument XAML syntax highlighting and restructured 
text

Hello all,

Just to let you know I've started a project to generate FlowDocument XAML from 
reStructuredText source. There is also a pygments formatter so that source code 
can be formatted.

The project, rst2xaml is at:

    http://code.google.com/p/rst2xaml/

So far it can cope with rest documents consisting of bold, italics, blockquotes 
and the sourcecode directive!

The pygments formatter looks quite nice though - here is the output shown in a 
FlowDocumentReader:

    http://twitpic.com/dfwu5

The goal is to be able to show highlighted Python examples / tutorials 
alongside an interactive interpreter in the browser with Silverlight / 
Moonlight.

Currently rst2xaml.py itself runs under CPython, but the xaml it generates is 
intended to be used from IronPython with WPF. There is an example script, 
display_xaml.py, that will show generated xaml in a window.

Michael
