### Markdown

Since Pygments 0.9, the distribution ships Markdown preprocessor sample code that uses Pygments to render source code in external/markdown-processor.py. You can copy and adapt it to your liking.

### TextMate

Antonio Cangiano has created a Pygments bundle for TextMate that allows to colorize code via a simple menu option. It can be found here.

### Bash completion

The source distribution contains a file `external/pygments.bashcomp` that sets up completion for the `pygmentize` command in bash.
