Sometimes I post things to this blog that are well documented elsewhere. During research I’ll Google a phrase without any immediate results. Then I’ll dig in a little more until I find what I’m looking for. Finally I’ll make a blog post with a title that mimics my Google search.

When I started frequently publishing blog posts that contained code, I immediately searched for a syntax highlighting plugin to WordPress. I found a pretty good one rather easily in SyntaxHighlighter. It worked well and was fairly intuitive.

Previously I posted what amounts to a link post about how TextMate can be hacked to help you write blog entries for WordPress. I really did not take that post far enough. Once you have the TextMate environment set up, ala the TextMate wiki, then you need to get your timezone just right.
