Highlight Configuration file

Configuration

Only the console executables read a configuration file. A plain ASCII text file has to be stored in the following path, depending on your platform:

UNIX: $HOME/.highlightrc
W32 : <path of highlight.exe>\highlight.conf

The options in the file behave like their equivalent long command line options of the same name. Flags (options without parameter) expect true or false as value.

Example:

$style=emacs
$linenumbers=true
$css-outfile=format.css
$format-style=gnu

The options defined in this file may be redefined by command line parameters (except flags).
