How do I render and syntax-highlight code in a Python file?

Description

I'd like to be able to do something analogous to cating a file and having the contents of it syntax highlighted.

In IPython or Jupyter, I can use the %pycat cell magic to do this.

How do I achieve the same thing in quarto?

I'm imagining something like:

 ```{python source=filename.py}
 # highlighted contents of filename.py
 ```

Looks like I can do this with Markdown:

Yep, that's the way I would have suggested.

I believe the include-code-files extension can be useful here: https://github.com/quarto-ext/include-code-files

You could write something close to what you thought was possible

 ```{.python include="filename.py"}
 ```

Hope it helps

Thanks! I did see that too, but ultimately decided to avoid the extra dependency since print with output: asis works well!
