jQuery.Syntax is an extremely fast and lightweight syntax highlighter. It has dynamic loading of syntax source files and integrates cleanly using CSS or modelines. It supports a large number of different programming languages.

This WordPress plugin provides syntax highlighting using jQuery.Syntax, supporting a wide range of popular languages. It supports both block elements (pre) and inline elements (code) for highlighting.

Wrap code blocks with <pre class="syntax {language}"> and </pre> where {language} is a jQuery.Syntax supported brush (http://www.oriontransfer.co.nz/software/jquery-syntax/examples).

Wrap inline code with <code class="syntax {language}"> and </code>.

If the code has already been escaped (i.e. characters such as <, >, have been converted to html entities), then add escaped into the class list: <pre class="syntax escaped {language}">. This will prevent the filter from doing this conversion automatically.
