Code Blocks

Code Blocks is a syntax highlighter add-on for Google Docs.

A quick note on requesting new languages:

Code Blocks is powered by highlight.js and can only provide syntax highlighting for languages that it supports. If you would like Code Blocks to add support for a language that is implemented by highlight.js, feel free to submit a request via the issue tracker. Otherwise, please refer to their page on requesting new languages, found here.
