The new version of Pygments is out now. The changelog is once again quite long and a couple of new lexers were added:

• Erlang
• ActionScript
• Literate Haskell
• Common Lisp
• Various assembly languages
• Gettext catalogs
• Squid configuration
• Debian control files
• MySQL-style SQL
• MOOCode

Some old lexers got updates too:

• Greatly improved the Haskell and OCaml lexers.
• Improved the Bash lexer’s handling of nested constructs.
• The C# and Java lexers exhibited abysmal performance with some input code; this should now be fixed.
• The IRC logs lexer is now able to colorize weechat logs too.
• The Lua lexer now recognizes multi-line comments.
• Fixed bugs in the D and MiniD lexer.

There are also two new formatters. One that outputs SVG documents and a terminal formatter that uses 256 different colors if the terminals support that. There is also a new style which resembles the vim7 default style.

For the full list of changes have a look at the changelog. You can download pygments from the download page. Happy coloring!
