It supports pluggable syntax +modules, and comes with modules for Ruby, XML, and YAML. It means you +can use Syntax to take a body of text representing instructions in +some syntax (like Ruby), and break that text into tokens. You could +conceivably use it to count the number of classes in a system, or the +number of lines of code per method. But Syntax was written +specifically with syntax highlighting in mind. |
