Overview

This plugin displays the content of a file in a post. The content of the file
(called a “snippet”) is put in a <pre></pre> block by default.

It has the following advantages over pasting the content of the file in your post

  • When the file is modified, no need to modify the posts referring to it
  • Indentation is preserved by default (useful to show code snippets)
  • Can optionally provide a link to the file (no need to copy-paste your snippet)

If requested (see the preserveformat parameter), the content of the file
is put in a <div></div> block, with each line (delimited by
the carriage return) in its own <p></p> block.
