External files provides a shortcode [external] 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.
The shortcode can accept three optional parameters:
<ul>
<li>format can be used to specify a highlighting format, rather than letting the plugin decide which format to use</li>
<li>start specifies a line number to output from, so sections of a file/url can be shown</li>
<li>end specifies the line to stop at</li>
</ul>
See the installation page for usage examples.
The available formats are:
<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>
Following is a list of ideas and features to add:
<ul>
<li>BASE_PATH and BASE_URL 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>
