+The `syntax` plugin adds support to ikiwiki for syntax highlighting through the *vim* editor and its perl interface [[!cpan Text::VimColor]]. It depends on a functional vim installation.
The plugin inserts a fragment of HTML with special marks from a file or a string text. It accepts the following parameters:
* **file**: Path to the source file. It must exist on every rebuild of the wiki.
* **text**: Text string with the source.
* **description** (optional): little description about the content.
+* **linenumbers** (optional): enable the line numering of the source page. A value greater than zero is the first line number.
The params *file* and *text* are mutually exclusive.
+In the case of file parameter, `syntax` will build a html link for direct download.
+
Example:
- \[[syntax type="perl" text="""
- #!/usr/bin/perl
+ \[[!syntax type="perl" text="""
+ #!/usr/bin/perl
- my $a = "World";
- print "Hello, ${a}\n";
- """]]
+ my $a = "World";
+ print "Hello, ${a}\n";
+ """]]
or
- \\[[syntax file="hello.pl" description="My first perl program"]]
+ \[[!syntax file="/examples/hello.pl" description="My first perl program"]]
