This extension highlights and automatically links SQF commands and functions.

Installation

Unzip the directory to wiki/extensions/SQFHighlighter
Add wfLoadExtension('SQFHighlighter'); to LocalSettings.php
There are no settings - the extension creates full path links unless the host is one of the following (then relative links are created):
- community.bistudio.com
- community.bohemia.net

Usage

Using <sqf> tags will auto-generate syntax highlighting and links to the pages.
