I'd like them to be easy to bundle, with few dependencies and easy to use.

Do you want to highlight Java code or use a Java lib to highlight some other code?
I use these two: https://jhighlight.dev.java.net/ (server-side) for xml and http://code.google.com/p/syntaxhighlighter/ (js lib) for other stuff. The latter has something called 'brushes' which are "pluggable" .js for several langauges. If you are doing simple highlighting, I recommend the ,js approach.

Apparently the syntaxhighligher js library is now located at alexgorbatchev.com/SyntaxHighlighter

If you want server side simple highlighting, there are Java ports of syntaxhighlighter and of prettify. Have a look at my approach groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/java-prettify/AANTzgRe81k

The first link is broken.

There is github.com/codelibs/jhighlight. Don't know for sure that it's the same project as jhighlight.dev.java.net.

+1, good to know, but this is for the online syntax highlight.
A little update, as we were recently looking for highlighting lib, we found the very good Jygments : http://code.google.com/p/jygments/ .
Available for Ant/Maven/SBT projects throught threecrickets repo, it's a Java port of Pygments ( http://pygments.org ), working for several major languages.

RSyntaxTextArea is worked for meHere
RSyntaxTextArea textArea = new RSyntaxTextArea();
textArea.setSyntaxEditingStyle(SyntaxConstants.SYNTAX_STYLE_JAVA);
textArea.setCodeFoldingEnabled(true);
RTextScrollPane rs = new RTextScrollPane(textArea);
