(The bits weren't even dry yet!)<BR/><BR/>2. The sexy C++ syntax highlighting is a new thing for this blog. It's done in JavaScript on the client side via <A HREF="http://shjs.sourceforge.net/" REL="nofollow">SHJS</A>. I totally dig SHJS, as it's very simple to set up and use.Drew Thalerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01081923007415869973noreply@blogger.com
