By setting the `highlighter` setting to `rouge` you can now easily highlight your code with it instead of relying on Pygments. However, Jekyll doesn't depend on Rouge explicitly, you will need to install it or add it to your Gemfile. The documentation has been updated accordingly.
Jekyll
By Tom Preston-Werner, Nick Quaranto, and many awesome contributors!
Jekyll is a simple, blog aware, static site generator. It takes a template directory (representing the raw form of a website), runs it through Textile or Markdown and Liquid converters, and spits out a complete, static website suitable for serving with Apache or your favorite web server. This is also the engine behind GitHub Pages, which you can use to host your project's page or blog right here from GitHub.
