I think code should be automatically syntax highlighted / run through PerlTidy when posted on PerlMonks

This kind of question comes up with some regularity. For example:

• Improvement of < code > sections
• Adding Minimal Formatting To Unformatted Newbie Posts
• PM Code Tidier/Highlighter
• Syntax highlighting code tags
• Automate perltidy for PM code?
• Use your Vim colorscheme in perlmonks syntax highlighting
• Free Nodelet hack: Syntax colouring
• Code highlighting?
• (Client side) Perl Syntax Highlighter
• Feature Request: Adding Colors to Source Code
• On-the-fly all-languages syntax highlighting
• Tidy feature to implement recommended code style
• HTML: Syntax highlightning for perl-Code
• Vim for PerlMonks nodes
• syntax highlighting of code in perlmonks forums
• Regarding the user Perltidy...
• Feature request: Colourful comments?
• Code Highlighting in the code tag
• Feature suggestion for code-tags
• Perl4Win32: prettify code syntax

If, after reading those, you still think PerlMonks should automatically syntax highlight / PerlTidy posted code — discuss it in the chatterbox! Then, if you still believe that you have something substantial to add to the discussion, post in Perl Monks Discussion.
