Support code syntax highlighting

Open samnang opened this issue 12 years ago • 4 comments

How I impress with byebug and it works well, but if we could get the code syntax highlighting, it will be great. I have tried pry-byebug, but it seems it hasn't supported the latest version from byebug yet.

I don't care much about syntax highlighting but I'll put that on a possible to-do list. And I'll upgrade pry-byebug to support last byebug soon!

Thanks, I will keep my eyes on either one of these solution.

I upgraded pry-byebug today but I leave this open in case someone wants to work on this syntax highligthing thing... :)

Hi, @deivid-rodriguez.

Thank you very much for all the hard work you do to build byebug.

I am a big fan of it and I am probably using byebug since the first day when I started learning Ruby.


I am currently utilizing this gist to enable syntax highlighting.

This hack is not perfect, but it does its job well. I haven't spotted any issues working with it for the last three months.

What are your thoughts about it? Are there any chances that something similar can be merged to byebug? Do you have any other preferences?


Thanks in advance.
