Syntax highlighting using Mediawiki formatting: Difference between revisions

{{draft task}}

 

 

When formatting a page for display, Mediawiki allows the page to include bold and italic text by placing the bold/italic text within paired repeated-single quote characters - 3 single quotes for bold and 2 for italic, 5 for bold italic.<br>

* less-than (&lt;) to &amp;lt;

* greater-than (&gt;) to &amp;gt;

If your language doesn't have keywords/reserved words or comments, use your judgement on what to highlight in bold or italic : )

 

 

Instead of showing your source within syntaxhighlight tags and having a separate output block, just show the source that would be output from your program when given its own source to process.<br>

I.e., don't use syntaxhighlight tags.
