Why another Prism plugin?
If you searched the plugin directory, you certainly noticed that there are several Prism plugins for WordPress. Well, none of them satisfied me: one plugin had no code editor, the other didn’t escape HTML tags, another didn’t have the options I needed… so I made a new one to suit my needs.
