 sourcehighlight is annoyingly slow, but it does support wiki directives

+I think having the option to choose source code page types from the
+dropdown list is definitely a feature.  This gives users an easy way
+to contribute programs (say `.pl` files) or code snippets (like, for
+example, the Elisp area of the EmacsWiki).  Actually, would there any
+other way to create a `.pl` file without write access to the
+repository?  --[[JasonBlevins]]
