## Description

This plugin automatically wraps Markdown code blocks (indented by 4 spaces or a 
tab)
 in CodeColorer tags. You can also specify what language the given snippet 
uses, by using the following syntax:

    ```
        :ruby:
        class Foo < Bar
        end
    ```

That is, the name of the language, as you’d use it when creating a CodeColorer block,

enclosed by two colons on the very first line of the code snippet.

The source code repository can be found over at
 [GitHub](http://github.com/x3ro/wordpress-codecolorer-markdown).
