Help:Editing

For text formatting (bold, italics, etc.) have a look at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing for help.

To highlight code, you can use the following syntax:

What it looks like	What you type
Code without syntax highlighting	<code> Code without syntax highlighting </code>
class EIFFEL_CODE inherit LIST [ANY] end	<e> class EIFFEL_CODE inherit LIST [ANY] end </e>
static void main(**args) { args++; }	<c> static void main(**args) { args++; } </c>
<?xml version="1.0"?> <tag> <subtag/> <subtag attr="value"> </subtag> </tag>	<xml> <?xml version="1.0"?> <tag> <subtag/> <subtag attr="value"> </subtag> </tag> </xml>
Code inlined into text is done by having one line between the code-tags. Like that: class EIFFEL.	Code inlined into text is done by having one line between the code-tags. Like that: <e>class EIFFEL</e>.

The available tags are:

<code>...</code>	Code without syntax highlighting
<eiffel>...</eiffel>	Eiffel code
<c>...</c>	C code
<cpp>...</cpp>	C++ code
<csharp>...</csharp>	C# code
<java>...</java>	Java code
<xml>...</xml>	XML

If you want to highlight a different language or have line numbers you can use the code tag and add formatting options:

<code>[php,N] ... </code>	PHP code without line numbers
<code>[perl,Y] ... </code>	Perl code with line numbers

Available language types are: eiffel, c, cpp, html, java, css, js, javascript, vbnet, csharp, pascal, xml, xhtml, php, delphi, bash, perl, sql, python, pseudocode
