ignace Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I found two posts that requested this from 2008 and some posted a few possible solutions, but they are from 2008 http://forums.phpfreaks.com/index.php?topic=215609.msg985474 http://forums.phpfreaks.com/index.php?topic=230395.msg1067248 Since there are a lot more options now for code highlighting could this be considered again? Personally I would like to see a code highlighter that also format's the inputted text since most people here who post code tend to write evertything against the border. EDIT: What's up with the editor injecting automagically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 There are a lot of improvements like this I'd like to do, so yes, this is definitely something we can reconsider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignace Posted July 10, 2012 Author Share Posted July 10, 2012 http://codebirth.com/index.php?topic=82.0 looks good. Does not copy line numbers when selecting, does not format though... Based on Geshi, mod can be found at http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3070 (updated 11 jan '12). Would be cool if it included a toolbar so you also could copy-to-clipboard. Not many possibilities though: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?action=search;basic_search=syntax+highlighting The only other one in that list is (has no line numbers): http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2925 And the 3rd is only when editing themes... Would it be hard to let a 3rd party plugin handle tags? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Yeah, I've used this one (except v2.x) for other projects and will likely use it for here edit, unless I'm blind, v3 no longer has a copy to clipboard option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kicken Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 edit, unless I'm blind, v3 no longer has a copy to clipboard option? Nope, got removed according to the changes page, I guess it used flash and people didn't like it. Aparently it's been replaced by a thing where you can double-click anywhere in the code block and it will convert it to a textarea and select everything so you can just double-click then ctrl-c. Seems like a nice mod, would be nice to have some line numbers for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignace Posted July 10, 2012 Author Share Posted July 10, 2012 Seems like a nice mod, would be nice to have some line numbers for sure. No mod with an auto-format option? Since most code here is indented with a random number between 1 and 8 spaces for each line.. (I intended to say something else, but I should be nice.) Just look at the indentation of the code here: http://forums.phpfreaks.com/index.php?topic=362257.msg1713875#msg1713875 Then compare that to: http://forums.phpfreaks.com/index.php?topic=362257.msg1713894#msg1713894 I used an online PHP formatter for that.
