MyBB.de Forum

Zitat:This is my first ever attempt at writing a syntax highlighter. I
have not looked into anyone else's code either, so I'm proud to say
that I thought up all the algorithms used in this code by myself (though someone else may have already used them, IDK >_>).

Doing a few benchmarks against GeSHi (what's used on most forum systems, like phpBB and vBulletin), my code performs, on average, 2 times faster. XML/HTML is done by a dedicated algorithm, so is usually around 5-6 times faster than GeSHi.
Still, it's rather slow, plus, my algorithm has a little flaw, which, in a worst case scenario, may cause it to run quite slowly.
For most codes however, it shouldn't be an issue.
I suggest installing a preparser if you plan on using this.

One thing to note is that this algorithm is more designed for speed than ease of extensibility, unlike GeSHi.
