How to add syntax-highlighted code to PowerPoint slides (Mac OS)

1. pygmentize -f rtf FILE | pbcopy
2. Paste into TextEdit (in rich text mode: Format → Make Rich Text before pasting), and copy to clipboard again.
3. In PowerPoint, Edit → Paste Special… → Styled Text.

(Pasting RTF directly into PowerPoint doesn't work correctly, at least with PowerPoint 2008 — it extends colour spans longer than it should, and sometimes removes line breaks. Going via TextEdit seems to solve the problem.)
