Syntax Highlighting Examples

Overview

This is a rather old extension that enables including code with syntax highlighting. To use, it, enclose your code in tags like this

<Language>
 ....
</Language>

where Language is the code for the programming or markup language being used.

The documentation lists a large number of supported languages, but the ones most likely to be useful here are

• cpp: C++
• bash: Bash shell
• html4strict: HTML
• javascript: Javascript
• perl: Perl
• php: PHP
• python: Python
• sql: SQL
• xml: XML

PHP

Text before code. <php><?php

   $v = "string";    // sample initialization

?> html text <?

   echo $v;         // end of php code

?> </php> Text after code.

Python

Text before code. <python> # Hello World in Python

def main():
    print "Hello World!"

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()</python>

Text after code.
