• Overall, an excellent syntax highlighter. I’m a PowerShell scripter, and Mivhak does a decent job of recognizing PowerShell syntax. Not perfect, but probably 90%. A few obvious annoyances — it only recognizes mixed case cmdlets — so, Get-Command is recognized, but get-command is not. That’s one that needs fixing. It also seems to break down a bit with multi-line commands and some of the newer syntax.

    On the huge plus side, however, by setting the default language to PowerShell, it immediately recognized the existing code on my site that had been coded PRE and had used a previous pair of plugins that had to be abandoned because of security issues. This was a massive time saver.

    I’d like to see the ability to easily update the syntax engine, or contribute to that, and I’d like to see the ability to tweak existing themes and/or create new ones.
