Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Syntax Highlighter ComPress is a simple WordPress plugin, that is based on the latest Alex Gorbatchev’s SyntaxHighlighter Script. Code and source text of different mark-up or programming languages can be highlighted in WordPress.

There are other WordPress plugin based on the SyntaxHighlighter Script but these cause long page loading times and they are difficult to handle. The advantage of Syntax Highlighter ComPress is that only necessary brush files will be loaded dynamically. Another advantage is that your code can easily pasted into your posts, no need to replace all ‘ < ‘ with ‘ &lt; ‘.

Supported mark-up or programming are: AppleScript, ActionScript3, Bash/shell, Coldfusion, C#, C++, CSS, Delphi, Diff, Erlang, Groovy, JavaScript, Java, JavaFX, Perl, PHP, Plain Text, Python, Ruby, Scala, SQL, Visual Basic and XML.

The plugin is localized in English, German and Romanian.
