This command is using the "highlight" tool to format and syntax highlight a source file in a specific language. Let's break down the different parts of the command:
highlight
: This is the name of the command, assuming it is a custom or third-party tool installed on the system.--out-format=${html}
: This flag specifies the output format for the highlighted code. In this case, it is set to HTML format using thehtml
variable.--inline-css
: This flag indicates that the output HTML should include inline CSS styles for the highlighted code.--syntax ${language}
: This flag specifies the language of the source file, which is indicated by thelanguage
variable.${source_file}
: This is the path or file name of the source file you want to highlight.
So, when you run this command, the "highlight" tool will take the specified source file, format it as HTML code with syntax highlighting applied for the specified language, and output the result to the console or a file.
