NAME
filtergen - packet filter compiler SYNOPSIS
filtergen [ -h | --help ] [ -V | --version ] [ -c | --compile ] [ -t target | --target=target ] [ -o outfile | --output=outfile ] infile filtergen [ -h | --help ] [ -V | --version ] [ -c | --compile ] [ -t target | --target=target ] [ -o outfile | --output=outfile ] [ -F pol- icy | --flush=policy ] DESCRIPTION
filtergen compiles a high-level filtering description language into a variety of target formats. USAGE
filtergen reads the ruleset from the infile specified on the command line (or standard input if infile is "-") and outputs to standard out- put (or outfile) via an optionally specified backend. Both short and GNU-style long option options are accepted: -c, --compile Only try to "compile" the input, and do not generate any output. This may be useful to check that an input file has no syntax errors in it before one attempts to use the result on a live server. -t target-filter, --target=target-filter If specified, target-filter will be used to select an output filter type, otherwise the default of iptables will be used. Supported backends are iptables, ipchains, ipfilter and cisco (for Cisco IOS access-lists). -F policy, --flush=policy Flush mode. Generate a set of rules for clearing all rules from the packet filter. Useful for firewall scripts that need to `shut- down' the firewall. You can supply a policy argument in place of the usual filename, to specify whether the flushed filter should default to accept, reject, or drop. It defaults to accept, equivalent to having no filter loaded at all. It is not necessary to specify an infile when using flush mode. -o outfile, --output=outfile Write output to outfile instead of standard output. -h, --help Show command help. -V, --version Show program version. BUGS
Not all backends implement all features. The packet filter is not optimised. SEE ALSO

filtergen was originally written by Matthew Kirkwood. Jamie Wilkinson <jaq@spacepants.org> then rewrote a lot of the internals, added some features, and took on maintenance of the project. January 7, 2004 FILTERGEN(8)

NAME
pygmentize - highlights the input file SYNOPSIS
pygmentize [-l <lexer>] [-F <filter>[:<options>]] [-f <formatter>] [-O <options>] [-P <option=value>] [-o <outfile>] [<infile>] pygmentize -S <style> -f <formatter> [-a <arg>] [-O <options>] [-P <option=value>] pygmentize -L [<which> ...] pygmentize -H <type> <name> pygmentize -h | -V DESCRIPTION
Pygments is a generic syntax highlighter for general use in all kinds of software such as forum systems, wikis or other applications that need to prettify source code. Its highlights are: * a wide range of common languages and markup formats is supported * special attention is paid to details, increasing quality by a fair amount * support for new languages and formats are added easily * a number of output formats, presently HTML, LaTeX and ANSI sequences * it is usable as a command-line tool and as a library * ... and it highlights even Brainfuck! pygmentize is a command that uses Pygments to highlight the input file and write the result to <outfile>. If no <infile> is given, stdin is used. OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below. -l <lexer> Set the lexer name. If not given, the lexer is guessed from the extension of the input file name (this obviously doesn't work if the input is stdin). -F <filter>[:<options>] Add a filter to the token stream. You can give options in the same way as for -O after a colon (note: there must not be spaces around the colon). This option can be given multiple times. -f <formatter> Set the formatter name. If not given, it will be guessed from the extension of the output file name. If no output file is given, the terminal formatter will be used by default. -o <outfile> Set output file. If not given, stdout is used. -O <options> With this option, you can give the lexer and formatter a comma-separated list of options, e.g. "-O bg=light,python=cool". Which options are valid for which lexers and formatters can be found in the documentation. This option can be given multiple times. -P <option=value> This option adds lexer and formatter options like the -O option, but you can only give one option per -P. That way, the option value may contain commas and equals signs, which it can't with -O. -S <style> Print out style definitions for style <style> and for formatter <formatter>. The meaning of the argument given by -a <arg> is for- matter dependent and can be found in the documentation. -L [<which> ...] List lexers, formatters, styles or filters. Set <which> to the thing you want to list (e.g. "styles"), or omit it to list every- thing. -H <type> <name> Print detailed help for the object <name> of type <type>, where <type> is one of "lexer", "formatter" or "filter". -h Show help screen. -V Show version of the Pygments package.
