Thanks for the explanation. But, I am not too keen to write parsers on
my own when I can easily borrow existing ones.

sure, but a simple one can be:

function myparser(str)
  .. call your prog do do something with str and return the result
end

But it does allow you to choose a "color scheme" for pretty printing.
This is similar to how most editors choose color schemes.

sure, but my experience is that there are easily 10-15 different categories and naming them right is somewhat tricky

On a related note, does it make sense to add foregroundcolor and
foregroupdstyle keys to \definebar? (Then, bars will be an appropriate
and versatile mechanism to define syntax highlighting regions).

maybe
