Is there a free code to html syntax highlighter written in C#? I am looking for something I can host in an .net mvc app

Answer 1

you might find this useful. http://code.google.com/p/syntaxhighlighter/wiki/Overview and this http://m3rlinez.blogspot.com/2008/09/syntax-highlightformat-c-java-php-code.html

Answer 2

If you can access a command line tool, you can get pygments (it is python), but just pipe the output back into your app.

http://pygments.org/

It's has a multitude of output formats.

Answer 3

While I haven't open-sourced it yet, you'd be welcome to the formatter I use for the C# in Depth web site. Give it a try, and let me know if you'd like to use it.

Answer 4

I wrote a C# syntax highlighter using regex and a mini "state machine" (a few if statements) here, it could be adapted for C, C++ and Java fairly easily. It produces the inline styles by default and a pre tag.

The source is there in C#.
