Code with syntax highlighting in a word processor


How can I get code with syntax highlighting into a word processor?

It's for a manual that will have code examples which should be able to go from page to page so putting images is not an option.

I'd rather do it with OpenOffice but I could also use iWorks or Office. The code is Ruby, Java, Python and maybe others. I could use TextMate to export it if necessary.


Solution

  • XCode does that already, I think. If you copy out of its window and paste into another app that accepts rich text, the formatting comes along with it. I just made a screenshot:
