Literate HS to TeX Highlighter Helper

Hi there,

This is the very first release of the lhs2tex helper for syntax highlighting. Use it in addition with lhs2tex. Due to a huge demand I make this tool publicly available. Use it your own risk. I am not responsible for any conveniences or inconveniences caused by using this software.

It aims to detect the `kind' of a token either by it's use or it's declaration. Trying to detect both local declarations and usages.

Regards, Alessandro Vermeulen

INSTALLING

• Download the zip file.

• Extract

• Go to the directory and run

  cabal install

• That's all

USAGE

lhs2TeX-hl INPUTFILE -o OUTPUTFILE

For more details see:

lhs2TeX-hl --help

Currently this is the only way to work with the tool.

In your .tex files add %include OUTPUFILE to tell lhs2tex to use the generated formatting directives. You'll need to provide the following commands yourself:

• \lhsCHkeyword
• \lhsCHprelude
• \lhsCHtype
• \lhsCHlitNumber
• \lhsCHconstructor
• \lhsCHfunction
• \lhsCHinfixoperator

KNOWN ISSUES

• Infix operators may not work that great, or normal functions that are used infix.
• It doesn't do literal string and char highlighting yet.
• AGDA isn't supported yet unfortunately.
• Errors aren't that informative. :)
