There is no information in this page. It just pulls together the contents of other pages/topics using the INCLUDE command and displays them here. This means you can create smaller topics, and combine them into a view of larger topics, to improve search and make editing easier and more modular.

The markup looks like this:

%INCLUDE{"%SYSTEMWEB%.TipsOfTheDayInclude"}%
%INCLUDE{"Main.CodeSyntaxHighlighting"}%
%INCLUDE{"Main.RenderingMath"}%

And it displays this:

Code Syntax Highlighting

You can tell the system which language you're writing code in, and it will automatically format and color code it according to widely recognized standards. Here is the list of languages that are supported - just look for where it says "Name:" and use that string inside the % CODE {" "} % block. If the language you're writing is not supported, pick another one and see if you like the color coding; otherwise, try another one.

For example,

<sticky>
%CODE{"c++"}%
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
  std::cout << "Hello, world." << std::endl;
}
%ENDCODE%</sticky>

renders this:

#include <iostream>
int main()
{
  std::cout << "Hello, world." << std::endl;
}

By using the num argument, you can insert line numbers starting at that number. So this:

<sticky>
%CODE{"sh" num="10"}% 
#!/bin/sh
languages=`enscript --help-highlight | grep 'Name:' | cut -d ' ' -f 2`
for l in $languages; do
    cat << EOF
   * $l
EOF
done
%ENDCODE% </sticky>

renders this:

   10	#!/bin/sh
   11	languages=`enscript --help-highlight | grep 'Name:' | cut -d ' ' -f 2`
   12	for l in $languages; do
   13	    cat << EOF
   14	   * $l
   15	EOF
   16	done

Rendering Math with LaTeX

You can write LaTeX text (mathematical notation) and it will render an image with your math. This code:

<sticky><latex>
  \int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-\alpha x^2} dx = \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{\alpha}}
</latex></sticky>

Produces this output:
