Hi Andrej,

colorize.pl is not totally gone, but you are right, the domain is pretty empty. I moved over to danand.de quite a long time ago.

The last colorize.pl package I did (years ago) was 0.4 which is still downloadable at:
http://www.flinkmann.de/~daniel/temp/colorize-0.4a.tgz

And yes: I married and changed my last name ;)

Cheers,

Daniel

Hello Daniel,
at first thanks for wonderful tool and thanks for finding my repo and for providing some background info.

I did some diffing and it seems that the colorize version hosted at my repo is v0.4a too with the same changelog / readme / todo files but it have the option for html output in code.
I don't remember doing such html stuff so it must came from the internets.

I found the same 0.4a at the http://freecode.com/projects/colorize_perl so it seems that mine should have different version.

Maybe it came from debian as there is the html option mentioned at some man page https://manned.org/colorize.pl

Anyway - it seems that the debian-originated package is the most powerful so I will leave the repo as is.

Best regards,
a.

Hi Andrej,

Thanks again for looking after it. I forked it again and I will have a look at the debian / centos packages when I have spare time for it.

The man page over at manned.org is not based on my colorize.pl, but on a similar project. I think it's http://web.archive.org/web/20010711231905/http://nrg.martos.bme.hu/release/colorize/ which is also lost for quite a few years.

Cheers,
Daniel
