Background
Stack Exchange allows to assign a code language syntax to every tag. It will then use that language to highlight the code of appropriately tagged questions.
There is a default
syntax highlighting option that effectively acts as auto-detect and attempts to highlight code based on its contents.
Currently, all tags (apart from the ones we explicitly assigned language hints to) have <none>
set as language. This means that code will not be highlighted, unless we modify the tag, or there's a language hint manually defined in the text of a question.
Request
Please make the default
code language syntax to be the default for all tags instead of <none>
.
There will be almost no questions with incorrect syntax highlighting after this. We'll apply a couple of manual changes for several questions after the request is fulfilled.
