Hi Matthias

actually they're both platform independent; it's true that they rely on 
a unix-like system for building, but in windows you have both cygwin and 
mingw/msys for that.  Indeed there's a windows build of source-highlight 
that I did with mingw: 
http://www.lorenzobettini.it/software/source-highlight/

if you need a windows build for source-highlight-qt I can do that.

I'm using source-highlight and source-highlight-qt on windows myself for 
qsource-highlight.

By the way: source-highlight-qt is the library for performing syntax 
highlighting in Qt documents; qsource-highlight is a front-end for 
source-highlight which relies on source-highlight-qt :)

and for instance, qsource-highlight itself uses qmake for building.

cheers
