如何升级pygments.rb使用和最新的pygments库（python）

Question

I am using pygments.rb in one of my projects I want to upgrade the python library which is used by pygments.rb to the latest version.

I am using a ubuntu 12.04 machine.

Answer 1

The Pygments Python package provides the command line utility pygmentize and so does the the ubuntu package python-pygments . Pygments is at 1.6 and ubuntu is at 1.4.

If you are currently using the ubuntu package you may want to remove it to avoid any conflicts

sudo apt-get remove python-pygments

The easiest way to manage Python packages is with pip

sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev build-essential

Then install/upgrade the Pygments package

sudo pip install Pygments --upgrade
