No stylesheets for SyntaxHighlightFilter about html-pipeline HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi @josephzidell! Thanks for using html-pipeline.

The SyntaxHighlightFilter uses GitHub linguist. In turn, the actual syntax highlighting is handled by pygments.rb. pygments.rb can generate the styles. Examples from pygments.rb's README:

To generate CSS for HTML formatted code, use the #css method:

Pygments.css
Pygments.css('.highlight')

To use a specific pygments style, pass the :style option to the #css method:

Pygments.css(:style => "monokai")

In short, you can start irb and get the styles.

❯ irb
>> require 'pygments'
=> true
>> Pygments.css('.highlight')
=> ".highlight .hll { background-color: #ffffcc }\n.highlight  { background: #f8f8f8..."

Hope this helps!

If you have anymore questions, let us know. 😄

@simeonwillbanks do you think this is worth documenting further? Perhaps just a link from the README to what pygments is?
