+# Highlight.js
+
+Highlight.js highlights syntax in code examples on blogs, forums and
+in fact on any web pages. It's very easy to use because it works
+automatically: finds blocks of code, detects a language, highlights it.
+
+Autodetection can be fine tuned when it fails by itself (see "Heuristics").
+
+
+## Installation and usage
+
+Downloaded package includes file "highlight.pack.js" which is a full compressed
+version of the library intended to use in production. All uncompressed source
+files are also available, feel free to look into them!
+
+The script is installed by linking to a single file and making a single
+initialization call:
+
+ <script type="text/javascript" src="highlight.pack.js"></script>
+ <script type="text/javascript">
+ hljs.initHighlightingOnLoad();
+ </script>
+
+Also you can replaces TAB ('\x09') characters used for indentation in your code
+with some fixed number of spaces or with a `<span>` to set them special styling:
+
+ <script type="text/javascript">
+ hljs.tabReplace = ' '; // 4 spaces
+ // ... or
+ hljs.tabReplace = '<span class="indent">\t</span>';
+
+ hljs.initHighlightingOnLoad();
+ </script>
+
+Then the script looks in your page for fragments `<pre><code>...</code></pre>`
+that are used traditionally to mark up code examples. Their content is
+marked up by logical pieces with defined class names.
+
+
+### Custom initialization
+
+If you use different markup for code blocks you can initialize them manually
+with `highlightBlock(code, tabReplace)` function. It takes a DOM element
+containing the code to highlight and optionally a string with which to replace
+TAB characters.
+
+Initialization using for example jQuery might look like this:
+
+ $(document).ready(function() {
+ $('pre code').each(function(i, e) {hljs.highlightBlock(e, ' ')});
+ });
+
+
+### Styling
+
+Elements of code marked up with classes can be styled as desired:
+
+ .comment {
+ color: gray;
+ }
+
+ .keyword {
+ font-weight: bold;
+ }
+
+ .python .string {
+ color: blue;
+ }
+
+ .html .atribute .value {
+ color: green;
+ }
+
+Highligt.js comes with several style themes located in "styles" directory that
+can be used directly or as a base for your own experiments.
+
+A full list of available classes is below ("Languages").
+
+
+## Export
+
+File export.html contains a little program that shows and allows to copy and paste
+an HTML code generated by the highlighter for any code snippet. This can be useful
+in situations when one can't use the script itself on a site.
+
+

+## Heuristics
+
+Autodetection of a code's language is done with a simple heuristics:
+the program tries to highlight a fragment with all available languages and
+counts all syntactic structures that it finds along the way. The language
+with greatest count wins.
+
+This means that in short fragments the probability of an error is high
+(and it really happens sometimes). In this cases you can set the fragment's
+language explicitly by assigning a class to the `<code>` element:
+
+ <pre><code class="html">...</code></pre>
+
+You can use class names recommended in HTML5: "language-html",
+"language-php". Classes also can be assigned to the `<pre>` element.
+
+To disable highlighting of a fragment altogether use "no-highlight" class:
+
+ <pre><code class="no-highlight">...</code></pre>
