Python Syntax Highlighting in OpenOffice Impress (Python recipe) by Bryan Cole

###Following are some crude regexes which I use to tokenise a text object comprising python code
multiline_pat = "(\'\'\'|\"\"\")"+r"(.|\n)*?\1"
singleline_pat = "(\'|\")"+r".*?\1"
kw_pat = r"\b("+"|".join(keyword.kwlist)+r")\b"
number_pat = r"\b\d+\b"
def_pat = r"((?<=def )\w+)|((?<=class )\w+)"
comment_pat = r"#.*(\n|$)"

###Define some colors for each token type
kwcolor = RGB( 255, 0, 0 )
numberColor = RGB( 128, 50, 0)
defColor = RGB(0,0,255)
StrColor = RGB(125,125,0) 
CommentColor = RGB(128,128,128)
MultiStrColor = RGB(0,255,0)

def RGB( nRed, nGreen, nBlue ):
    """Return an integer which repsents a color.
    The color is specified in RGB notation.
    Each of nRed, nGreen and nBlue must be a number from 0 to 255.
    """
    return (int( nRed ) & 255) << 16 | (int( nGreen ) & 255) << 8 | (int( nBlue ) & 255)
