Vim: Save highlighted syntax in HTML

By automatthias

Vim is able to highlight syntax of a very large number of languages. It also has a nice feature, allowing you to save the highlighted source to a HTML file.

:runtime! syntax/2html.vim

After typing this command, you’ll get a split window with your source in HTML. You can now save it to a file.
