== GIT: FIRST COMMIT -- THEN EXPORT

Triple check.

== TESTS

........................
highlight --print-config
........................

This will print the config file search paths and compilation options.


To test syntax definitions, run

..............................
highlight --list-scripts=langs
..............................

This command compiles all syntax scripts.

................................
highlight --list-scripts=themes
highlight --list-scripts=plugins
................................

These commands show installed files.


To quickly test highlighting on the command line, type:

................................
highlight -ISc
................................

Now type some C code and hit kbd:[CTRL+D] to quit.

Add `--verbose` to print additional syntax parsing information.


Test filetype recognition:

* file suffix (default)
* no suffix (i.e. makefile)
* shebang (i.e. Bash script)
* force syntax using `-S` and `--syntax-by-name`


== UNNEEDED FILES

Remove `src/gui-qt/.qmake.stash`

The following options are used in third party applications:

* `--input, -i`

* `--syntax-by-name`
* `--out-format`
* `--include-style`
* `--inline-css`

The following themes are used in third party applications:
