I am a PhD student currently working on system modeling and timing analyses. Previously, I had been working on a real-time driver/software for robotic skins, which was a continuation of my master thesis. My bachelors had been in Software Engineering.

I am implementing a port of C's stdio to the Linux kernel, called kio.

I am also writing a compiler that reads a language derived from markdown and generates software documentation. I strongly believe DoxyGen and the like use a very bad method (documentation mixed with code). Check out the DocThis! compiler if you are interested (it works, but I still have a lot of features in mind to add to it). Here is a sample output.

@werner, thanks, but I tried the method in the other answer, and it worked great.

@Werner, I'm back with a related question! If using soul package, I write: \ul{This{-}is{-}something}, what I get is This-is-somethi (underlined, of course). Which means \ul eats up as many {-} as I have! Any ideas?

comment Argument of \someCustomCommand has an extra } encountered when command is put in \ul. How to fix this?
Great thanks! Could I ask a side question that is probably related? I see in section 6.4 of the manual how to use soul in section headings. It is very vague, but fine. However, it says how to apply a soul command to the whole section, while I need to write something like \section{Only \ul{this} is underlined}. Is such a thing possible?

In fact, it's no big deal, but if there is such an option it would be easier for me

comment How to have multiple link styles with hyperref?
@speravir: I mean something like this: \hypersetup{colorlinks,urlcolor=blue} in the preamble, and then later something like: \hypersetup{urlcolor=follow-text} and then have \color{red} some text \url{this url will be red} some text \color{green} some text \url{this url will be green} some text \hypersetup{urlcolor=blue}. Of course, everywhere else in the document, the url would be blue

Quick side question, is it possible to tell hyperref to have urlcolor equal to whatever the text itself is? So its color would follow the color of the the text. If the link is in some red text, it would be red and if in green text it would be green?

Great! I didn't know hypersetup could be written in the document body.

comment How do I get colorized syntax highlighted code in pdfLaTeX
listings is great. Also if you (@nt01) want to do additional manual coloring, take a look at this answer I got from a question of mine.

@Dr.HarishKumar For example. Or any other style related stuff. Let's say, one hyperref that has colorlinks true and the other false.
