CodeShow

CodeShow turns a directory of code into a static website suitable for use in presentations. It uses pygments for syntax highlighting. In directories that include a readme.md or readme.txt, the readme contents will be displayed under the directory listing.

Passing --site44 generates content optimized for hosting on Site44:

1. No .html or .txt file extensions are appended to files. This makes for prettier URLs.
2. A mimetypes.site44.txt file is generated that enforces HTML and plain text content types for those pretty URLs.

See codeshow.site44.com for an example of the output, or get the code at github.com/smarx/codeshow.
