Code syntax

[Mattjd]

Is it possible to get language syntax when using a code block?

You mean syntax highlighting, like in a programmer's editor? Not on this forum I don't think. How would it even know what language you were using?

The tag takes an argument, right?

Code: Select all

URMOM.GT.ALL

That would be the possible way to make it work, if it could. I think?

ETA: I put code=fortran and it still parsed the tag.

True, you could add a tag.

You'd have to find a bunch of language parsers written in whatever language this website uses (JS?) and take the perf hit to run them on the code blocks.

This would be a very good feature for a coding forum, maybe not worthwhile on a lifting forum.
