10.5: View syntax-highlighted source code in Quick Look
Authored by: mjb on Tue, Dec 11 2007 at 11:33AM PST

I noticed that several languages appeared to not be highlighted. Upon closer inspection, the included version of highlight was missing a large number of language definitions.

My fix for this was to download the source for highlight, and copy in all the missing language definitions from that to the Contents/Resources/langDefs (I think) folder within the plugin package.
