+## Source highlighter for programming or markup languages.
+## Currently only few languages are supported, other languages may be added.
+## The interface supports one language nested in another.
+##
+## You can use this to build your own syntax highlighting, check this example:
+##
+##   ```Nim
+##   let code = """for x in $int.high: echo x.ord mod 2 == 0"""
+##   var toknizr: GeneralTokenizer
+##   initGeneralTokenizer(toknizr, code)
+##   while true:
+##     getNextToken(toknizr, langNim)
+##     case toknizr.kind
+##     of gtEof: break  # End Of File (or string)
+##     of gtWhitespace:
+##       echo gtWhitespace # Maybe you want "visible" whitespaces?.
+##       echo substr(code, toknizr.start, toknizr.length + toknizr.start - 1)
+##     of gtOperator:
+##       echo gtOperator # Maybe you want Operators to use a specific color?.
+##       echo substr(code, toknizr.start, toknizr.length + toknizr.start - 1)
+##     # of gtSomeSymbol: syntaxHighlight("Comic Sans", "bold", "99px", "pink")
+##     else:
+##       echo toknizr.kind # All the kinds of tokens can be processed here.
+##       echo substr(code, toknizr.start, toknizr.length + toknizr.start - 1)
+##   ```
+##
+## The proc `getSourceLanguage` can get the language `enum` from a string:
+##   ```Nim
+##   for l in ["C", "c++", "jAvA", "Nim", "c#"]: echo getSourceLanguage(l)
+##   ```
+##
+## There is also a `Cmd` pseudo-language supported, which is a simple generic
+## shell/cmdline tokenizer (UNIX shell/Powershell/Windows Command):
+## no escaping, no programming language constructs besides variable definition
+## at the beginning of line. It supports these operators:
+##   ```Cmd
+##   &  &&  |  ||  (  )  ''  ""  ;  # for comments
+##   ```
+##
+## Instead of escaping always use quotes like here
+## `nimgrep --ext:'nim|nims' file.name`:cmd: shows how to input ``|``.
+## Any argument that contains ``.`` or ``/`` or ``\`` will be treated
+## as a file or directory.
+##
+## In addition to `Cmd` there is also `Console` language for
+## displaying interactive sessions.
+## Lines with a command should start with ``$``, other lines are considered
+## as program output.
