Something strange is happening in that list.
Can someone take a look? Can we start thinking moving the boost-docs
list outside sourceforge?

Great!

I agree with the use of Pygments.

You are reading Quickbook 1.3 docs.

Here it is a Quickbook 1.4 docs online version:

Before you start hacking at it, please read:
http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BoostKateSupport

The idea is to make both syntax coloring similar.

Download boost::hs, and look for the file:
http://tinyurl.com/33nb7b

It is an already working syntax higlighting for Kate:
http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdebase/kate/highlight.html

I think it may help you in your project.

This is other thing you may want to check:
http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/QuickbookSourceStylesheetProject

The colors are already similar to the quickbook kate support definition.

Thanks for jumping in!
We really need this kind of energy at IBD :)
Please, be free to ask for anything you need.

King regards
Matias
