I wrote a Python wrapper for source-highlight which can be used as an Apache
filter, which might be useful to people with root access (or at least config
access to their web server). It can probably be easily rewritten to be useable
as a CGI, but I haven't tried: I'd be interested in porting that into my
version if someone did it.

Anyway, you can find the script here:
