[Codestriker-user] Re: integration with enscript

[Jason R. <jre...@ya...>]

Hi,

It think would be difficult to use enscript. Codestriker needs to do its own
html formatting for adding comments, handing diffs, etc. ViewCVS can just use
the output file almost as is. Codestriker is heavily used with patches, so the
enscript rules are not quite right for a patch file. However, it sure does have
a lot language filters setup. I bet with a some work it would be possible to
make CS read (or translate) the enscript .st files that has the formatting
rules for 70 languages. Of coarse it makes the rendering code more complicated.


It is a good idea, but lots of work to do it in Codestriker. 

Thanks
Jason.
