How to highlight the search term in the search result

Rails
1

In the ‘basecamp’ product from 37signals if I search for ‘ruby’ the I
get a
bunch of results. In the search result page the search term (ruby in
this
case) is highlighted.

I was wondering how to accomplish the same.

How to highlight the ‘search term’ in the search result? Is there any
already existing utility that I could use?

Thanks.
