    Of course, I know how it goes when reinventing the wheel, but in this situation, I think it's not reinventing the wheel from my point of view, it might be true from your point of view. If you read my post, you should know this tool is built on top of https://github.com/tidwall/pretty, so all of the core logic was done by `tidwall`, I just built the CLI app.

    Bit worth stealing: tidwall/pretty allows you to pretty-print (newlines, syntax highlighting) JSON with a single line.

    2) Pandoc invokes the skylight Haskell library, which uses XML syntax descriptions to define which tokens/pieces of a given language have which "role". Skylight will parse your code and tag each part of it according to those rules. You can edit those XML files (or create new ones). Check this page for a description of how they work. You'll find the existing KDE XML syntax descriptors here.
