Looks like Emacs 22 has a --script flag that allows you to use it to write #! scripts. So here's a kinda ugly command-line-callable elisp script to colorize a file with Emacs font-lock.
Like everything else posted to kragen-hacks without any notice to the contrary, this program is in the public domain; I abandon any copyright in it. #!/usr/local/bin/emacs --script ;;; environment setup (require 'cl) ;; It's too bad there's no convenient way to set EMACSLOADPATH in my ;; environment.
