Hi folks,

I'm starting a syntax highlighter project here: 
https://github.com/zyrolasting/syntax-highlighting

There seems to be a precedent for using an existing highlighter from another 
ecosystem. I understand the pragmatism behind that, but a syntax highlighter 
seems to me a missing battery in Racket.

Without funding I am unable to compete with the implementations with 200+ 
languages supported. So I merely intend to provide two renderers (Terminal and 
HTML [XML syntax]), some palettes, and a sensible extension to parsack that 
classifies characters using Pygments' token classes. This should provide a 
strong, familiar core on which to add features according to community interest.

That being said, I invite feedback and collaboration to add support for 
languages once the core mechanisms are established.
