Sure highlight >= 3 is readily available in most distributions, why
break
compatibility now? We could instead extract and check the version before
highlighting:
```
highlight_version=$(highlight --version | \
sed 's/^ highlight version //;t m;d;b;:m;s/\.[0-9]*$//')
if [ $highlight_version -lt 3 ]; then
exec highlight --force -f -I -X -S "$EXTENSION" 2>/dev/null
else
exec highlight --force -f -I -O xhtml -S "$EXTENSION" 2>/dev/null
fi
```
