 There are several wiki extensions installed to help you in the editing task.
-== SyntaxHighlight GeSHi ==
+== SyntaxHighlight ==
 This extension can be used to present source code with syntax highlighting. As you can guess for us it is mainly useful for C++ code, but it can also be used with other languages.

-Historically, we used a slightly different extension (also based on GeSHi) with a different syntax. For backward compatibility the extension now installed has been customized to also support this other syntax.
+The extension also now supports using the ''syntaxhighlight'' tag instead of ''source'', which can help if the code itself contains the source tag:
 <pre>
-<syntax type="C++">
+<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
-#include <foo.h>
+    <header path="include/foo.h" />
+     <source path="src/foo.cpp" />
-class MyClass {
+</syntaxhighlight>
-public:
-     MyClass();
-    ~MyClass();
-};
-</syntax>
 </pre>
