GeSHi - Generic Syntax Highlighter
==================================

[](#geshi---generic-syntax-highlighter)

This repository has been created just to be able to install GeSHi as a Composer package. Technically it's a port of the GeSHi project code found on SourceForge:

Differences from the official SourceForge repository:

- 3/mar/2016: removed the closing `?>` tag from PHP files.
- 11/may/2014: added `sass.php` file to highlight Sass stylesheets.
- 28/sep/2012: added `twig.php` file to highlight Twig templates.
