How does one write code with syntax highlighting in the FEniCS Q&A forum?

Question

I want to write code with syntax highlighting in this forum, but can't get it to work. Please advise.

Answer 1

At the moment, we have a Markdown Editor as the WYSIWYG editor.
This can perform all sorts of highlighting - see:

In principal, you should be able to get highlighting by simply indenting 4 spaces,

if(True):
    print("Hello")

or

#include "rubbish.h"
R = new Rubbish;
