A quick search of "Syntax Highlight" or "Syntax" doesn't result in any syntax highlighting posts so I decided to post this. I think it would be a good idea to add Lua syntax highlighting to the wiki. I think the GeSHI addend or plugin or extension or whatever it's called should be somehow added to the wiki because it supports Lua. I think this would be very useful by making it much easier for anyone visiting the wiki to read the examples and documentation and stuff.

The codes on the wiki aren't really long, so they are still viewable in my opinion.

but isnt a hard thing to add syntax highlighting and it would turn more easy to new programmers.

Wikipedia uses Lua in fact (for some of their templates) and they managed to get some Lua highlighting going, and since we use practically the same software, I would be surprised if this isn't possible.

more than possible its a simple thing to do, for the people who understand HTML and CSS. Maybe in a near future we will see it happening.
