Syntax Highlighting is based on Syntax Highlighting for Code by Tiago Barroso. All credit for the original add-on goes to him. A major thanks is also due for Tim Rae, who extended the original add-on with CSS support.

The present fork and update to Anki 2.1 was made possible through the generous support of a fellow Anki user who would like to remain anonymous.
