''Syntax highlighting'' will make source code more readable.  This wiki has support for syntax highlighting of many programming languages, including [[nasal]], XML and C++ (see [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi]] for a more complete list).  The source code snippet to be highlighted is put between <nowiki><syntaxhighlight></nowiki> tags.  The tag can be given some attributes to control how the source code appears.
