zat

zat is a syntax highlighting cat like utility.

It uses tree-sitter and supports for vscode themes.

Build with the provided zig wrapper:

./zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseSmall

The zig wrapper just fetches a known good version of zig nightly and places it in the .cache directory. Or use your own version of zig.

Run with:

zig-out/bin/zat

Place it in your path for convenient access.

Supply files to highlight on the command line. Multiple files will be appended like with cat. If no files are on the command line zat will read from stdin. Override the language with --language and select a different theme with --theme. The default theme will be read from ~/.config/flow/config.json if found.

See --help for full command line.
