I have old dream to implement code syntax highlight (for gemtext) - is any crate you could advice for these needs? Also, looking for ANSI -> RGB conversion crate (for terminal colors emulation)

Gemtext syntax us pretty trivial... Why not just parse the first few chars yourself?

Not using too many libraries is good for the soul.

I had a similar idea but more along the lines of a pastebin for gemni. could upload useful cgi scripts

Thanks, found (by recommendation) and already integrated this crate:

โ€” https://github.com/trishume/syntect

it's simply as maybe connect JS plugin, now have another deals with extensions detection, etc :)

finally have this feature, and some tutorials in geminispace looks much better, even integration pretty raw yet
