GeSHi is a Generic Syntax Highlighter

Code Highlighting

GeSHi started as an idea to create a generic syntax highlighter for the phpBB forum system, but has since been generalised. It aims to be a simple but powerful highlighting class, with the following goals:

  • Support for a wide range of popular languages
  • Easy to add a new language for highlighting
  • Highly customisable output formats

The text editors I use:

PFE

Programmers File Editor

PFE (Programmers File Editor) the old diehard editor. This has been with me since the early 90’s and is still with me today (well occasionally at least). Simple editor with few frills - it does the job.

Notepad++

Notepad++ is a free source code editor (and Notepad replacement), which supports several programming languages, running under the MS Windows environment.
