What type of request is this?

New tool idea

Clear and concise description of the feature you are proposing

A (common) programming languages or scripts code syntax highlighter / prettifier for clipboard .

A simple tool to :

  • paste some piece of code (say 50 lines max) - script, shell command-line or code snippet
  • choose or detect the language
  • display it with syntax highlighting (with some various colors themes).
  • copy it back in clipboard once prettified

Very usefull to paste some script / code snippet in office apps (like Microsoft Word ou libre office) to create 'old-school' IT documentation or white paper.
Avoid the need to use VisualCode or others Editors as intermediaite, just for some lines.

You have already made some prettifier for JSON or YAML, it could be the same but upgraded to other scripts or programming languages.

PS: great job for all theses tools in it-tech ! Bravo !

Is their example of this tool in the wild?

One example that I use some time with to paste command lines in MsWord,
simple, full client side javascript and open-source:
