Not sure where exactly this came from (credits in the source say Written by Peter Odding, 2007/04/04), but it works. It adds HTML tags to Lua source code using a simple LPEG-based lexer: the highlighting script: http://www.mat.ucsb.edu/projects/luaAV/browser/trunk/buildtool/utilities/html.highlighter.lua the lexer: http://www.mat.ucsb.edu/projects/luaAV/browser/trunk/extra/modules/doc/lexer.lua
I posted that lexer to lua-l back in April 2007 [1], unfortunately I didn't attach the scripts but uploaded them to my former homepage, then promptly broke the links when my web server machine died some time later :-(. Lucky for me by then several people had saved a copy which means the scripts survived.
Recently I renewed my interest in syntax highlighting because I published the Lua/APR documentation [2] which includes example code that needs syntax highlighting, so I suppose I should salvage those scripts and give them a permanent home on GitHub :-)
