cheddar

Cheddar is a tiny Rust tool that uses syntect to render source code to syntax-highlighted HTML.

It's invocation is compatible with cgit filters, i.e. data is read from stdin and the filename is taken from argv:

cat README.md | cheddar README.md > README.html

In fact, if you are looking at this file on git.tazj.in chances are that it was rendered by cheddar.

The name was chosen because I was eyeing a pack of cheddar-flavoured crisps while thinking about name selection.
