Title: Syntax Highlighter
Post by: pacdiggity on June 09, 2011, 01:36:14 PM: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2109 (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2109)
This is purportedly an add-on for SMF's that allows highlighting for code. It work pretty simply and would be good for us as an RMing community that has scripters around. It would help script blindly, it would help people learn the language, and it would look cool too. What's more, Ruby is supported. To use it, use[ code=alias ]Code stuff[ /code ].

Has this been attempted before or is there some reason we shouldn't have it? Could this be implemented into RMRK?

Not quite sure why I first read that as 'magical and a genie'. Maybe that's true also, though.
