I also just noticed that the piping through awk isn't necessary with
source-highlight.  Just add "-n" to the command and it will automatically
output it with line numbers.  Even better, if you add "--line-number-ref",
it will number all output lines and generate an anchor that can be referred
to from another document!  That could come in VERY handy.
