API

The Pygments for .NET library exposes two properties and four methods in the Pygments.Highlighter class

public static IEnumerable<Lexer> Lexers; //  all the language lexers available

public static IEnumerable<string> Styles; // all the Styles available 


public string HighlightToBBCode(
	string sourceCode, 
	string lexerName, 
	string styleName, 
	bool codeTag = false, 
	bool  monoFont = false );

public string HighlightToRTF(
	string sourceCode, 
	string lexerName, 
	string styleName, 
	string fontFace=null);

public string HighlightToHtml(
	string sourceCode, 
	string lexerName, 
	string styleName, 
	bool fragment = false, 
	string title = "", 
	bool generateInlineStyles = false, 
	string classPrefix = "", 
    string wrappingDivClass = "highlight", 
    string wrappingDivStyles = "", 
    string preStyles = "", 
    LineNumberStyle lineNumberStyle = LineNumberStyle.none, 
    int lineNumberStart = 1, 
    bool noBackground = false,  
    string lineBreaks="\n", 
    string lineAnchorPrefix = null, 
    string lineSpanPrefix = null, 
    bool anchorLineNumbers = false, 
    string highlightLines = "");

public string HighlightToLatex(
	string sourceCode, 
	string lexerName, 
	string styleName, 
	bool fragment = false, 
	string title = "", 
	string documentClass = "article", 
	bool lineNumbers = false, 
	int lineNumberStart = 1, 
	int lineStep = 1, 
	bool texComments = false, 
	bool mathEscape = false ) 

Usage

Quick Sample:

using System.IO;

namespace test {
    class Program {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var highlighter = new Pygments.Highlighter();
            var src = File.ReadAllText(@"program.cs");
            File.WriteAllText("output.html", highlighter.HighlightToHtml(src, "c#", "vs", highlightLines: "7 8 9 10"));
        }
    }
}

History

I leveraged the rather great work to make this all function from

https://github.com/cvrajeesh/pygments-net

and added the bits to make it frictionless for anyone to consume.
