-c2html is a syntax highlighter for C source code that produces a
-highlighted html file as output. The output can be read by any
-graphical WWW-Browser. If the browser understands the tags to change
-font colors (as Netscape does) the output will look like highlighted
-by emacs. Otherwise it will not look so nice, but readability is
-increased too.
+C2html is a syntax highlighter for C source code that produces a
+highlighted html file as output.
-c2html can also work as a CGI program and convert your sources on the
-fly. To use in this way copy it to your /cgi-bin directory and
-configure your webserver to call c2html for *.c and *.h files. An
-example that works with Apache is described in the manpage.
+C2html offers the following features:
+
+ - fast (single pass conversion using flex)
+ - doesn't change formatting - only adds <FONT COLOR=#XXXX> tags
+ and properly escapes non-ascii characters
+ - easy integration with webservers - browse your sources colourized!
+ - gzips http output for browsers to save bandwidth (only in CGI mode)
+ - documentation and manpage included
+
+Please use the java2html port for converting C++ sources!
