Syntax highlighting about phd_thesis_markdown HOT 5 CLOSED

It looks like you may be able reference the code block by adding an attribute using the method described at: http://pandoc.org/README.html#verbatim-code-blocks

    ```{#coderef .python}
    CODE HERE
    ```

from phd_thesis_markdown.

It is possible to add syntax highlighting to a code block using the backtick method below:

    ```python
    CODE HERE
    ```

...which will output something like:

mood = 'happy'
if mood == 'happy':
    print("I am a happy robot")

I have added an example to the following section:
https://github.com/tompollard/phd_thesis_markdown/blob/master/source/10_chapter_1.md

from phd_thesis_markdown.

Also can you set a figure on the code block?

I'm not sure if I understand this bit of the question. You would like a figure to appear inside the code block?

@tompollard I didnt know it accepted code braces, just thought it was code blocks (tab indentation). Is it possible to set the theme of the syntax highlighting to a dark theme.

What I meant is that the actual code block itself is figured so I can reference it else where

Is it possible to set the theme of the syntax highlighting to a dark theme.

Syntax highlighting style can be defined in Pandoc with the --highlight-style=STYLE argument. For more detail, see: http://pandoc.org/README.html#syntax-highlighting

I have added the highlight-style argument to the Makefile with the default style: https://github.com/tompollard/phd_thesis_markdown/blob/master/Makefile. Replacing pygments with espresso should give you a dark block.
