Enlighter - Customizable Syntax Highlighter WordPress Plugin
Simple post syntax-highlighted code using the EnlighterJS Javascript Plugin.
Enlighter is a free, easy-to-use, syntax highlighting tool for WordPress. It's build in PHP and uses the MooTools(Javascript) based EnlighterJS to provide a beautiful code-appearance. Using it can be as simple as selecting an editor style or adding shortcode around your scripts which you want to highlight and Enlighter takes care of the rest. An easy to use Theme-Customizer is included to modify the build-in themes without any css knowlegde! It also supports the automatic creation of tab-panes to display code-groups together (useful for multi-language examples - e.g. html+css+js) Theme Demo - Language Exa
