This extension allows source code to be syntax highlighted on the wiki pages.
This README file might be out of date, have a look at the extension page
for updated informations:

    https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi

== Requirements ==

This version of the extension has been tested with Pygments 1.6, 2.0.2 and
MediaWiki 1.25 as of 2015-06-19. To get releases of this extension compatible
with earlier versions of MediaWiki, visit:

    https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:ExtensionDistributor/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi

== Installation ==

First, you will need to ensure that this extension's Composer-managed
dependencies are available. In the extension directory, run 'composer update'.

Next, Add this line to your LocalSettings.php:

    wfLoadExtension( 'SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi' );

By default, this extension will use a bundled copy of Pygments 2.0.2. If you
would like to use a different copy of the library, you can set
$wgPygmentizePath to point to the path to the 'pygmentize' binary.

== Usage ==

On the wiki page, you can now use "source" elements:

<source lang="php">
<?php
    v = "string";    // sample initialization
?>
html text
<?php
    echo v;         // end of php code
?>
</source>

== Parameters ==

For details information of these parameters, see the documentation of Pygments'
HtmlFormatter at <http://pygments.org/docs/formatters/#HtmlFormatter>.

* lang;		Defines the language.
* line;		Corresponds to linenos="inline" option.
* start;	Corresponds to linenostart opion.
* enclose;  If set to "none", corresponds to the nowrap=1 option.
* inline;   Corresponds to the nowrap=1 option.
* highlight;    Corresponds to hl_lines option (comma separated).

== Note ==

Pygments is generous about creating HTML elements: highlighting large blocks of
code can easily generate enough of them to crash a browser. As a guard, syntax
highlighting is turned off for code fragments larger than 100 kB.
