Albino: a ruby wrapper for pygmentize

This project is a hack of an extraction from GitHub.

The issue I faced is that Ryan Tomayko's rocco literate programming tool depends on this. That's cool, but albino used to depend on posix-spawn, which depends on a C library, which won't work in JRuby.

This fork removes posix-spawn, instead using popen, which works just fine in JRuby on Mac OS X. As a casualty, the API for Albino#execute has changed, for which I am ~~deeply sorry~~ unapologetic.

Installation

sudo easy_install pygments
gem install albino

Usage

Simple

require 'albino'
puts Albino.colorize('puts "Hello World"', :ruby)

Advanced

require 'albino'
@syntaxer = Albino.new(File.new('albino.rb'), :ruby, :bbcode)
puts @syntaxer.colorize
