<p>External files provides a shortcode <em>[external]</em> which can be used to insert the contents of a file or url into the current post or page. The plugin will automatically format the text based on the extension (for files) or mime type (for urls), using Alex Gorbatchevs’ <a href="http://alexgorbatchev.com" title="More about Syntax Highlighter" rel="nofollow ugc">Syntax Highlighter</a> javascript.</p>
<p>The shortcode can accept three optional parameters:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>format</em> can be used to specify a highlighting format, rather than letting the plugin decide which format to use</li>
<li><em>start</em> specifies a line number to output from, so sections of a file/url can be shown</li>
<li><em>end</em> specifies the line to stop at</li>
</ul>
<p>See the installation page for usage examples.</p>
<p>The available formats are:</p>
<ul>
<li>AS3</li>
<li>Bash</li>
<li>Cpp</li>
<li>CSharp</li>
<li>Css</li>
<li>Delphi</li>
<li>Diff</li>
<li>Groovy</li>
<li>Java</li>
<li>JavaFX</li>
<li>JScript</li>
<li>Perl</li>
<li>Php</li>
<li>Plain</li>
<li>PowerShell</li>
<li>Python</li>
<li>Ruby</li>
<li>Scala</li>
<li>Sql</li>
<li>Vb</li>
<li>Xml</li>
</ul>
<h3>Future features</h3>
<p>Following is a list of ideas and features to add:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>BASE_PATH</em> and <em>BASE_URL</em> options that can be used in the shortcode to avoid typing the same long path/url each time</li>
<li>a list of available formats with the checkboxes to enable/disable each individually, thus avoiding having to load all of them</li>
<li>an option for changing the theme of the syntax highlighter</li>
</ul>
