Use CodeRay for syntax highlighting
Reported by Matias Korhonen | July 5th, 2009 @ 10:15 PM | in 0.5
We could stop using SyntaxHighlighter in the admin section if we render the diffs using the CodeRay gem.
the use of CodeRay is also demonstrated in the Create a simple code snippet app with Rails article in the third issue of Rails Magazine.

I just found out that there's a gem that can integrate the CodeRay functionality in RedCloth, imaginatively named Redcloth with CodeRay.
This could be a way of reducing the amount of JS that we employ even further.

I have just discovered that CodeRay itself has a ForRedCloth "hack":
A little hack to enable CodeRay highlighting in RedCloth.

Based on a quick test I did in irb, it seems to work!

I'm already working on this.
RedCloth 4.2 doesn't work with the stable version of CodeRay. I had to get the SVN version, build the gem and install it. Worked fine.
One more problem tho: how do you get code on more than one line?

And regarding your description "We could stop using SyntaxHighlighter in the admin section", I think we can get completely rid of it. Everywhere.

Do we have to use the Redcloth with CodeRay gem?
That allows multi-line code samples with a special <source> tag.
