WP-Syntax was originally written by Ryan McGeary. I took over the code maintenance 2 or 3 years ago. Basically doing just enough to keep it alive and working and merging patches submitted by others. But I think it time to start breathing life back into development. If you would like to contribute, WP-Syntax can be found on Github. Fork and start submitting your pull requests today.

Features in development:

• Default setting page to allow full customization of highlighting.
• TinyMCE button which opens a modal to override the default settings and a box to paste the code with real time syntax highlighting to insert.
• Real time syntax highlighting.
• Copy button utilizing ZeroClipboard.
• View source button in popup window without highlighting.
• Download source button.
• Include external files for highlighting.
• Expandable/collapsible code boxes.
