Hi Pete
As part of my learning experience, I think I want to see if I can write a haskell pastebin that does proper syntax highlighting. Someone in #haskell suggested that I use just a lexer because using a parser is overkill. However, I can't make this assessment until I see how to use the parser and the information it can supply.
You might want to check out HsColour, which does pretty much exactly what you asked for: http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/darcs/hscolour/ Thanks Neil
