WP-Syntax free WordPress plugin

WP-Syntax provides clean syntax highlighting using GeSHi — supporting a wide range of popular languages. It supports highlighting with or without line numbers and maintains formatting while copying snippets of code from the browser. It avoids conflicts with other 3rd party plugins by running an early pre-filter and a late post-filter that substitutes and pulls the code snippets out first and then pushes them back in with highlighting at the end. The result is source code formatted and highlighted the way you intended. Usage, Supported Languages, Styling Guidelines, and Release Notes are availabe in the Other Notes section.

(Bold languages just highlight the more popular ones.) Styling Guidelines WP-Syntax colors code using the default GeSHi colors. It also uses inline styling to make sure that code highlights still work in RSS feeds. It uses a default wp-syntax.css stylesheet for basic layout. To customize your styling, copy the default wp-content/plugins/wp-syntax/wp-syntax.css to your theme’s template directory and modify it. If a file named wp-syntax.css exists in your theme’s template directory, this stylesheet is used instead of the default. This allows theme authors to add their own customizations as they see fit. Advanced Customization WP-Syntax supports a wp_syntax_init_geshi action hook to customize GeSHi initialization settings. Blog owners can handle the hook in a hand-made plugin or somewhere else like this: set_brackets_style(‘color: #000;’); $geshi->set_keyword_group_style(1, ‘color: #22f;’); } ?> This allows for a great possibility of different customizations. Be sure to review the GeSHi Documentation.
