Its been a while since I worked with this lib but I always thought Pygments was pretty.

Everybody mentions this, and what's great is that it is a pretty natural solution to a lot of problems. I remember coming up with a version of it while writing an optimized prime-sieve[1], and was surprised when I later learned that it was some named technique.
In addition to just the basic loop-unrolling (which I'm pretty sure you usually don't need to do by hand with modern compilers), it works really well when you need to jump into the middle of a pattern. Like if you're sieving primes in a wheel-factorized array.
