+=====================
+Use Pygments in Java
+=====================
+
+Thanks to _Jython: http://www.jython.org it's possible to use Pygments in Java.
+
+This page is a simple tutorial to get an idea of how this is working. You can then look at _Jython documentation: http://www.jython.org/docs/ for more advanced use.
+
+Since version 1.5, Pygments is deployed on _Maven Central: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/pygments/pygments/ as a JAR so is Jython which make it a lot easier to create the Java project.
+
+Here is an example of _Maven: http://www.maven.org pom.xml file for a project running Pygments:
+
+.. sourcecode:: xml
+
+    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
+
+    <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
+      <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
+      <groupId>example</groupId>
+      <artifactId>example</artifactId>
+      <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
+      <dependencies>
+        <dependency>
+          <groupId>org.python</groupId>
+          <artifactId>jython-standalone</artifactId>
+          <version>2.5.3</version>
+        </dependency>
+        <dependency>
+          <groupId>org.pygments</groupId>
+          <artifactId>pygments</artifactId>
+          <version>1.5</version>
+          <scope>runtime</scope>
+        </dependency>
+      </dependencies>
+    </project>
+
+The following Java example:
+
+.. sourcecode:: java
+
+    PythonInterpreter interpreter = new PythonInterpreter();
+
+    // Set a variable with the content you want to work with
+    interpreter.set("code", code);
+
+    // Simple use Pygments as you would in Python
+    interpreter.exec("from pygments import highlight\n"
+        + "from pygments.lexers import PythonLexer\n"
+        + "from pygments.formatters import HtmlFormatter\n"
+        + "\nresult = highlight(code, PythonLexer(), HtmlFormatter())");
+
+    // Get the result that has been set in a variable
+    System.out.println(interpreter.get("result", String.class));
+
+will print something like:
+
+.. sourcecode:: html
+
+    <div class="highlight">
+    <pre><span class="k">print</span> <span class="s">&quot;Hello World&quot;</span></pre>
+    </div>
