I’ve noticed that you can use python libdiff to output a side by side comparison of files with their differences. Is there an easy way to output just one file in python as html with line numbers?

The
HtmlFormatterof Pygments supports alinenosoption to enable line numbers. Pygments also features syntax highlighting for many languages, if desired, and it takes care of escaping HTML meta-characters. (For the line numbers only Pygments might be overkill.)
