+
+## Version 9.0.0
+
+The new major version brings a reworked styling system. Highlight.js now defines
+a limited set of highlightable classes giving a consistent result across all the
+styles and languages. You can read a more detailed explanation and background in
+the [tracking issue][#348] that started this long process back in May.
+
+This change is backwards incompatible for those who uses highlight.js with a
+custom stylesheet. The [new style guide][sg] explains how to write styles
+in this new world.
+
+Bundled themes have also suffered a significant amount of improvements and may
+look different in places, but all the things now consistent and make more sense.
+Among others, the Default style has got a refresh and will probably be tweaked
+some more in next releases. Please do give your feedback in our
+[issue tracker][issues].
+
+New languages in this release:
+
+- *Caché Object Script* by [Nikita Savchenko][]
+- *YAML* by [Stefan Wienert][]

+
+Improvements to existing languages and styles:

+
+Other notable changes:
+
+- [Web workers support][webworkers] added bu [Jan Kühle][].
+- We now have tests for compressed browser builds as well.
+- The building tool chain has been switched to node.js 4.x. and is now
+ shamelessly uses ES6 features all over the place, courtesy of [Jeremy Hull][].
+- License added to non-compressed browser build.

+
+## Version 8.4
+
+We've got the new [demo page][]! The obvious new feature is the new look, but
+apart from that it's got smarter: by presenting languages in groups it avoids
+running 10000 highlighting attempts after first load which was slowing it down
+and giving bad overall impression. It is now also being generated from test
+code snippets so the authors of new languages don't have to update both tests
+and the demo page with the same thing.
+
+Other notable changes:
+
+- The `template_comment` class is gone in favor of the more general `comment`.
+- Number parsing unified and improved across languages.
+- C++, Java and C# now use unified grammar to highlight titles in
+ function/method definitions.
+- The browser build is now usable as an AMD module, there's no separate build
+ target for that anymore.
+- OCaml has got a [comprehensive overhaul][ocaml] by [Mickaël Delahaye][].
+- Clojure's data structures and literals are now highlighted outside of lists
+ and we can now highlight Clojure's REPL sessions.
+
+New languages:
+
+- *AspectJ* by [Hakan Özler][]
+- *STEP Part 21* by [Adam Joseph Cook][]
+- *SML* derived by [Edwin Dalorzo][] from OCaml definition
+- *Mercury* by [mucaho][]

+
+
+## Version 8.3
+
+We streamlined our tool chain, it is now based entirely on node.js instead of
+being a mix of node.js, Python and Java. The build script options and arguments
+remained the same, and we've noted all the changes in the [documentation][b].
+Apart from reducing complexity, the new build script is also faster from not
+having to start Java machine repeatedly. The credits for the work go to [Jeremy
+Hull][].
+
+Some notable fixes:
+
+- PHP and JavaScript mixed in HTML now live happily with each other.
+- JavaScript regexes now understand ES6 flags "u" and "y".
+- `throw` keyword is no longer detected as a method name in Java.
+- Fixed parsing of numbers and symbols in Clojure thanks to [input from Ivan
+ Kleshnin][ik].
+
+New languages in this release:
+
+- *Less* by [Max Mikhailov][]
+- *Stylus* by [Bryant Williams][]

+## Version 8.2
+
+We've finally got [real tests][test] and [continuous testing on Travis][ci]
+thanks to [Jeremy Hull][] and [Chris Eidhof][]. The tests designed to cover
+everything: language detection, correct parsing of individual language features
+and various special cases. This is a very important change that gives us
+confidence in extending language definitions and refactoring library core.
+
+We're going to redesign the old [demo/test suite][demo] into an interactive
+demo web app. If you're confident front-end developer or designer and want to
+help us with it, drop a comment into [the issue][#542] on GitHub.

+
+## Version 8.0
+
+This new major release is quite a big overhaul bringing both new features and
+some backwards incompatible changes. However, chances are that the majority of
+users won't be affected by the latter: the basic scenario described in the
+README is left intact.
+
+Here's what did change in an incompatible way:
+
+- We're now prefixing all classes located in [CSS classes reference][cr] with
+ `hljs-`, by default, because some class names would collide with other
+ people's stylesheets. If you were using an older version, you might still want
+ the previous behavior, but still want to upgrade. To suppress this new
+ behavior, you would initialize like so:
+
+ ```html
+ <script type="text/javascript">
+ hljs.configure({classPrefix: ''});
+ hljs.initHighlightingOnLoad();
+ </script>
+ ```
+
+- `tabReplace` and `useBR` that were used in different places are also unified
+ into the global options object and are to be set using `configure(options)`.
+ This function is documented in our [API docs][]. Also note that these
+ parameters are gone from `highlightBlock` and `fixMarkup` which are now also
+ rely on `configure`.
+
+- We removed public-facing (though undocumented) object `hljs.LANGUAGES` which
+ was used to register languages with the library in favor of two new methods:
+ `registerLanguage` and `getLanguage`. Both are documented in our [API docs][].
+
+- Result returned from `highlight` and `highlightAuto` no longer contains two
+ separate attributes contributing to relevance score, `relevance` and
+ `keyword_count`. They are now unified in `relevance`.
+
+Another technically compatible change that nonetheless might need attention:
+
+- The structure of the NPM package was refactored, so if you had installed it
+ locally, you'll have to update your paths. The usual `require('highlight.js')`
+ works as before. This is contributed by [Dmitry Smolin][].
+
+New features:
+
+- Languages now can be recognized by multiple names like "js" for JavaScript or
+ "html" for, well, HTML (which earlier insisted on calling it "xml"). These
+ aliases can be specified in the class attribute of the code container in your
+ HTML as well as in various API calls. For now there are only a few very common
+ aliases but we'll expand it in the future. All of them are listed in the
+ [class reference][cr].
+
+- Language detection can now be restricted to a subset of languages relevant in
+ a given context — a web page or even a single highlighting call. This is
+ especially useful for node.js build that includes all the known languages.
+ Another example is a StackOverflow-style site where users specify languages
+ as tags rather than in the markdown-formatted code snippets. This is
+ documented in the [API reference][] (see methods `highlightAuto` and
+ `configure`).
+
+- Language definition syntax streamlined with [variants][] and
+ [beginKeywords][].
+
+New languages and styles:
+
+- *Oxygene* by [Carlo Kok][]
+- *Mathematica* by [Daniel Kvasnička][]
+- *Autohotkey* by [Seongwon Lee][]
+- *Atelier* family of styles in 10 variants by [Bram de Haan][]
+- *Paraíso* styles by [Jan T. Sott][]
+
+Miscellaneous improvements:
+
+- Highlighting `=>` prompts in Clojure.
+- [Jeremy Hull][] fixed a lot of styles for consistency.
+- Finally, highlighting PHP and HTML [mixed in peculiar ways][php-html].
+- Objective C and C# now properly highlight titles in method definition.
+- Big overhaul of relevance counting for a number of languages. Please do report
+ bugs about mis-detection of non-trivial code snippets!

+## Version 7.5
+
+A catch-up release dealing with some of the accumulated contributions. This one
+is probably will be the last before the 8.0 which will be slightly backwards
+incompatible regarding some advanced use-cases.
+
+One outstanding change in this version is the addition of 6 languages to the
+[hosted script][d]: Markdown, ObjectiveC, CoffeeScript, Apache, Nginx and
+Makefile. It now weighs about 6K more but we're going to keep it under 30K.
+
+New languages:
+
+- OCaml by [Mehdi Dogguy][mehdid] and [Nicolas Braud-Santoni][nbraud]
+- [LiveCode Server][lcs] by [Ralf Bitter][revig]
+- Scilab by [Sylvestre Ledru][sylvestre]
+- basic support for Makefile by [Ivan Sagalaev][isagalaev]
+
+Improvements:
+
+- Ruby's got support for characters like `?A`, `?1`, `?\012` etc. and `%r{..}`
+ regexps.
+- Clojure now allows a function call in the beginning of s-expressions
+ `(($filter "myCount") (arr 1 2 3 4 5))`.
+- Haskell's got new keywords and now recognizes more things like pragmas,
+ preprocessors, modules, containers, FFIs etc. Thanks to [Zena Treep][treep]
+ for the implementation and to [Jeremy Hull][sourrust] for guiding it.
+- Miscellaneous fixes in PHP, Brainfuck, SCSS, Asciidoc, CMake, Python and F#.

+## New core developers
+
+The latest long period of almost complete inactivity in the project coincided
+with growing interest to it led to a decision that now seems completely obvious:
+we need more core developers.
+
+So without further ado let me welcome to the core team two long-time
+contributors: [Jeremy Hull][] and [Oleg
+Efimov][].
+
+Hope now we'll be able to work through stuff faster!
+
+P.S. The historical commit is [here][1] for the record.

+
+## Version 7.4
+
+This long overdue version is a snapshot of the current source tree with all the
+changes that happened during the past year. Sorry for taking so long!
+
+Along with the changes in code highlight.js has finally got its new home at
+<http://highlightjs.org/>, moving from its cradle on Software Maniacs which it
+outgrew a long time ago. Be sure to report any bugs about the site to

+
+Other notable changes:
+
+- Corrected many corner cases in CSS.
+- Dropped Python 2 version of the build tool.
+- Implemented building for the AMD format.
+- Updated Rust keywords (thanks to [Dmitry Medvinsky][]).
+- Literal regexes can now be used in language definitions.
+- CoffeeScript highlighting is now significantly more robust and rich due to
+ input from [Cédric Néhémie][].
+
+[Dmitry Medvinsky]: https://github.com/dmedvinsky
+[Cédric Néhémie]: https://github.com/abe33
+
+
+## Version 7.3
+
+- Since this version highlight.js no longer works in IE version 8 and older.
+ It's made it possible to reduce the library size and dramatically improve code
+ readability and made it easier to maintain. Time to go forward!
+
+- New languages: AppleScript (by [Nathan Grigg][ng] and [Dr. Drang][dd]) and
+ Brainfuck (by [Evgeny Stepanischev][bolk]).
+
+- Improvements to existing languages:
+
+ - interpreter prompt in Python (`>>>` and `...`)
+ - @-properties and classes in CoffeeScript
+ - E4X in JavaScript (by [Oleg Efimov][oe])
+ - new keywords in Perl (by [Kirk Kimmel][kk])
+ - big Ruby syntax update (by [Vasily Polovnyov][vast])
+ - small fixes in Bash
+
+- Also Oleg Efimov did a great job of moving all the docs for language and style
+ developers and contributors from the old wiki under the source code in the
+ "docs" directory. Now these docs are nicely presented at
+ <http://highlightjs.readthedocs.org/>.

+
+
+## Version 7.2
+
+A regular bug-fix release without any significant new features. Enjoy!
+
+
+## Version 7.1
+
+A Summer crop:
+
+- [Marc Fornos][mf] made the definition for Clojure along with the matching
+ style Rainbow (which, of course, works for other languages too).
+- CoffeeScript support continues to improve getting support for regular
+ expressions.
+- Yoshihide Jimbo ported to highlight.js [five Tomorrow styles][tm] from the
+ [project by Chris Kempson][tm0].
+- Thanks to [Casey Duncun][cd] the library can now be built in the popular
+ [AMD format][amd].
+- And last but not least, we've got a fair number of correctness and consistency
+ fixes, including a pretty significant refactoring of Ruby.

+
+
+## Version 7.0
+
+The reason for the new major version update is a global change of keyword syntax
+which resulted in the library getting smaller once again. For example, the
+hosted build is 2K less than at the previous version while supporting two new
+languages.
+
+Notable changes:
+
+- The library now works not only in a browser but also with [node.js][]. It is
+ installable with `npm install highlight.js`. [API][] docs are available on our
+ wiki.
+
+- The new unique feature (apparently) among syntax highlighters is highlighting
+ *HTTP* headers and an arbitrary language in the request body. The most useful
+ languages here are *XML* and *JSON* both of which highlight.js does support.
+ Here's [the detailed post][p] about the feature.
+
+- Two new style themes: a dark "south" *[Pojoaque][]* by Jason Tate and an
+ emulation of*XCode* IDE by [Angel Olloqui][ao].
+
+- Three new languages: *D* by [Aleksandar Ružičić][ar], *R* by [Joe Cheng][jc]
+ and *GLSL* by [Sergey Tikhomirov][st].
+
+- *Nginx* syntax has become a million times smaller and more universal thanks to
+ remaking it in a more generic manner that doesn't require listing all the
+ directives in the known universe.
+
+- Function titles are now highlighted in *PHP*.
+
+- *Haskell* and *VHDL* were significantly reworked to be more rich and correct
+ by their respective maintainers [Jeremy Hull][sr] and [Igor Kalnitsky][ik].
+
+And last but not least, many bugs have been fixed around correctness and
+language detection.
+
+Overall highlight.js currently supports 51 languages and 20 style themes.

+
+## Version 6.2
+
+A lot of things happened in highlight.js since the last version! We've got nine
+new contributors, the discussion group came alive, and the main branch on GitHub
+now counts more than 350 followers. Here are most significant results coming
+from all this activity:
+
+- 5 (five!) new languages: Rust, ActionScript, CoffeeScript, MatLab and
+ experimental support for markdown. Thanks go to [Andrey Vlasovskikh][av],
+ [Alexander Myadzel][am], [Dmytrii Nagirniak][dn], [Oleg Efimov][oe], [Denis
+ Bardadym][db] and [John Crepezzi][jc].
+
+- 2 new style themes: Monokai by [Luigi Maselli][lm] and stylistic imitation of
+ another well-known highlighter Google Code Prettify by [Aahan Krish][ak].
+
+- A vast number of [correctness fixes and code refactorings][log], mostly made
+ by [Oleg Efimov][oe] and [Evgeny Stepanischev][es].

+
+## Version 6.1 — Solarized
+
+[Jeremy Hull][jh] has implemented my dream feature — a port of [Solarized][]
+style theme famous for being based on the intricate color theory to achieve
+correct contrast and color perception. It is now available for highlight.js in
+both variants — light and dark.
+
+This version also adds a new original style Arta. Its author pumbur maintains a
+[heavily modified fork of highlight.js][pb] on GitHub.
+
+[jh]: https://github.com/sourrust
+[solarized]: http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized
+[pb]: https://github.com/pumbur/highlight.js
+
+
+## Version 6.0
+
+New major version of the highlighter has been built on a significantly
+refactored syntax. Due to this it's even smaller than the previous one while
+supporting more languages!
+
+New languages are:
+
+- Haskell by [Jeremy Hull][sourrust]
+- Erlang in two varieties — module and REPL — made collectively by [Nikolay
+ Zakharov][desh], [Dmitry Kovega][arhibot] and [Sergey Ignatov][ignatov]
+- Objective C by [Valerii Hiora][vhbit]
+- Vala by [Antono Vasiljev][antono]
+- Go by [Stephan Kountso][steplg]

+[sourrust]: https://github.com/sourrust

+[ignatov]: https://github.com/ignatov
+[vhbit]: https://github.com/vhbit
+[antono]: https://github.com/antono
+[steplg]: https://github.com/steplg
+
+Also this version is marginally faster and fixes a number of small long-standing
+bugs.
+
+Developer overview of the new language syntax is available in a [blog post about
+recent beta release][beta].
+
+[beta]: http://softwaremaniacs.org/blog/2011/04/25/highlight-js-60-beta/en/
+
+P.S. New version is not yet available on a Yandex CDN, so for now you have to
+download [your own copy][d].
+
+[d]: /soft/highlight/en/download/
+
+
+## Version 5.14
+
+Fixed bugs in HTML/XML detection and relevance introduced in previous
+refactoring.
+
+Also test.html now shows the second best result of language detection by
+relevance.
+
+
+## Version 5.13
+
+Past weekend began with a couple of simple additions for existing languages but
+ended up in a big code refactoring bringing along nice improvements for language
+developers.
+
+### For users
+
+- Description of C++ has got new keywords from the upcoming [C++ 0x][] standard.
+- Description of HTML has got new tags from [HTML 5][].
+- CSS-styles have been unified to use consistent padding and also have lost
+ pop-outs with names of detected languages.
+- [Igor Kalnitsky][ik] has sent two new language descriptions: CMake & VHDL.
+
+This makes total number of languages supported by highlight.js to reach 35.
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+- Custom classes on `<pre>` tags are not being overridden anymore
+- More correct highlighting of code blocks inside non-`<pre>` containers:
+ highlighter now doesn't insist on replacing them with its own container and
+ just replaces the contents.
+- Small fixes in browser compatibility and heuristics.
+
+[c++ 0x]: http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B0x
+[html 5]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5
+[ik]: http://kalnitsky.org.ua/
+
+### For developers
+
+The most significant change is the ability to include language submodes right
+under `contains` instead of defining explicit named submodes in the main array:
+
+ contains: [
+ 'string',
+ 'number',
+ {begin: '\\n', end: hljs.IMMEDIATE_RE}
+ ]
+
+This is useful for auxiliary modes needed only in one place to define parsing.
+Note that such modes often don't have `className` and hence won't generate a
+separate `<span>` in the resulting markup. This is similar in effect to
+`noMarkup: true`. All existing languages have been refactored accordingly.
+
+Test file test.html has at last become a real test. Now it not only puts the
+detected language name under the code snippet but also tests if it matches the
+expected one. Test summary is displayed right above all language snippets.
+
+
+## CDN
+
+Fine people at [Yandex][] agreed to host highlight.js on their big fast servers.
+[Link up][l]!

+
+
+## Version 5.10 — "Paris".
+
+Though I'm on a vacation in Paris, I decided to release a new version with a
+couple of small fixes:
+
+- Tomas Vitvar discovered that TAB replacement doesn't always work when used
+ with custom markup in code
+- SQL parsing is even more rigid now and doesn't step over SmallTalk in tests
+
+
+## Version 5.9
+
+A long-awaited version is finally released.
+
+New languages:
+
+- Andrew Fedorov made a definition for Lua
+- a long-time highlight.js contributor [Peter Leonov][pl] made a definition for
+ Nginx config
+- [Vladimir Moskva][vm] made a definition for TeX
+
+[pl]: http://kung-fu-tzu.ru/
+[vm]: http://fulc.ru/
+
+Fixes for existing languages:
+
+- [Loren Segal][ls] reworked the Ruby definition and added highlighting for
+ [YARD][] inline documentation
+- the definition of SQL has become more solid and now it shouldn't be overly
+ greedy when it comes to language detection
+
+[ls]: http://gnuu.org/
+[yard]: http://yardoc.org/
+
+The highlighter has become more usable as a library allowing to do highlighting
+from initialization code of JS frameworks and in ajax methods (see.
+readme.eng.txt).
+
+Also this version drops support for the [WordPress][wp] plugin. Everyone is
+welcome to [pick up its maintenance][p] if needed.
+
+[wp]: http://wordpress.org/
+[p]: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~isagalaev/+junk/highlight/annotate/342/src/wp_highlight.js.php
+
+
+## Version 5.8
+
+- Jan Berkel has contributed a definition for Scala. +1 to hotness!
+- All CSS-styles are rewritten to work only inside `<pre>` tags to avoid
+ conflicts with host site styles.
+
+
+## Version 5.7.
+
+Fixed escaping of quotes in VBScript strings.
+
+
+## Version 5.5
+
+This version brings a small change: now .ini-files allow digits, underscores and
+square brackets in key names.
+
+
+## Version 5.4
+
+Fixed small but upsetting bug in the packer which caused incorrect highlighting
+of explicitly specified languages. Thanks to Andrew Fedorov for precise
+diagnostics!
+
+
+## Version 5.3
+
+The version to fulfil old promises.
+
+The most significant change is that highlight.js now preserves custom user
+markup in code along with its own highlighting markup. This means that now it's
+possible to use, say, links in code. Thanks to [Vladimir Dolzhenko][vd] for the
+[initial proposal][1] and for making a proof-of-concept patch.
+
+Also in this version:
+
+- [Vasily Polovnyov][vp] has sent a GitHub-like style and has implemented
+ support for CSS @-rules and Ruby symbols.
+- Yura Zaripov has sent two styles: Brown Paper and School Book.
+- Oleg Volchkov has sent a definition for [Parser 3][p3].

+[vp]: http://vasily.polovnyov.ru/
+[vd]: http://dolzhenko.blogspot.com/
+
+
+## Version 5.2
+
+- at last it's possible to replace indentation TABs with something sensible
+ (e.g. 2 or 4 spaces)
+- new keywords and built-ins for 1C by Sergey Baranov
+- a couple of small fixes to Apache highlighting
+
+
+## Version 5.1
+
+This is one of those nice version consisting entirely of new and shiny
+contributions!
+
+- [Vladimir Ermakov][vooon] created highlighting for AVR Assembler
+- [Ruslan Keba][rukeba] created highlighting for Apache config file. Also his
+ original visual style for it is now available for all highlight.js languages
+ under the name "Magula".
+- [Shuen-Huei Guan][drake] (aka Drake) sent new keywords for RenderMan
+ languages. Also thanks go to [Konstantin Evdokimenko][ke] for his advice on
+ the matter.
+
+[vooon]: http://vehq.ru/about/
+[rukeba]: http://rukeba.com/
+[drake]: http://drakeguan.org/
+[ke]: http://k-evdokimenko.moikrug.ru/
+
+
+## Version 5.0
+
+The main change in the new major version of highlight.js is a mechanism for
+packing several languages along with the library itself into a single compressed
+file. Now sites using several languages will load considerably faster because
+the library won't dynamically include additional files while loading.
+
+Also this version fixes a long-standing bug with Javascript highlighting that
+couldn't distinguish between regular expressions and division operations.
+
+And as usually there were a couple of minor correctness fixes.
+
+Great thanks to all contributors! Keep using highlight.js.
+
+
+## Version 4.3
+
+This version comes with two contributions from [Jason Diamond][jd]:
+
+- language definition for C# (yes! it was a long-missed thing!)
+- Visual Studio-like highlighting style
+
+Plus there are a couple of minor bug fixes for parsing HTML and XML attributes.
+
+[jd]: http://jason.diamond.name/weblog/
+
+
+## Version 4.2
+
+The biggest news is highlighting for Lisp, courtesy of Vasily Polovnyov. It's
+somewhat experimental meaning that for highlighting "keywords" it doesn't use
+any pre-defined set of a Lisp dialect. Instead it tries to highlight first word
+in parentheses wherever it makes sense. I'd like to ask people programming in
+Lisp to confirm if it's a good idea and send feedback to [the forum][f].
+
+Other changes:
+
+- Smalltalk was excluded from DEFAULT_LANGUAGES to save traffic
+- [Vladimir Epifanov][voldmar] has implemented javascript style switcher for
+ test.html
+- comments now allowed inside Ruby function definition
+- [MEL][] language from [Shuen-Huei Guan][drake]
+- whitespace now allowed between `<pre>` and `<code>`
+- better auto-detection of C++ and PHP
+- HTML allows embedded VBScript (`<% .. %>`)

+[voldmar]: http://voldmar.ya.ru/
+[mel]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_Embedded_Language
+[drake]: http://drakeguan.org/
+
+
+## Version 4.1
+
+Languages:
+
+- Bash from Vah
+- DOS bat-files from Alexander Makarov (Sam)
+- Diff files from Vasily Polovnyov
+- Ini files from myself though initial idea was from Sam
+
+Styles:
+
+- Zenburn from Vladimir Epifanov, this is an imitation of a
+ [well-known theme for Vim][zenburn].
+- Ascetic from myself, as a realization of ideals of non-flashy highlighting:
+ just one color in only three gradations :-)
+
+In other news. [One small bug][bug] was fixed, built-in keywords were added for
+Python and C++ which improved auto-detection for the latter (it was shame that
+[my wife's blog][alenacpp] had issues with it from time to time). And lastly
+thanks go to Sam for getting rid of my stylistic comments in code that were
+getting in the way of [JSMin][].

+
+
+## Version 4.0
+
+New major version is a result of vast refactoring and of many contributions.
+
+Visible new features:
+
+- Highlighting of embedded languages. Currently is implemented highlighting of
+ Javascript and CSS inside HTML.
+- Bundled 5 ready-made style themes!
+
+Invisible new features:
+
+- Highlight.js no longer pollutes global namespace. Only one object and one
+ function for backward compatibility.
+- Performance is further increased by about 15%.
+
+Changing of a major version number caused by a new format of language definition
+files. If you use some third-party language files they should be updated.
+
+
+## Version 3.5
+
+A very nice version in my opinion fixing a number of small bugs and slightly
+increased speed in a couple of corner cases. Thanks to everybody who reports
+bugs in he [forum][f] and by email!
+
+There is also a new language — XML. A custom XML formerly was detected as HTML
+and didn't highlight custom tags. In this version I tried to make custom XML to
+be detected and highlighted by its own rules. Which by the way include such
+things as CDATA sections and processing instructions (`<? ... ?>`).

+
+## Version 3.3
+
+[Vladimir Gubarkov][xonix] has provided an interesting and useful addition.
+File export.html contains a little program that shows and allows to copy and
+paste an HTML code generated by the highlighter for any code snippet. This can
+be useful in situations when one can't use the script itself on a site.

+
+## Version 3.2 consists completely of contributions:
+
+- Vladimir Gubarkov has described SmallTalk
+- Yuri Ivanov has described 1C
+- Peter Leonov has packaged the highlighter as a Firefox extension
+- Vladimir Ermakov has compiled a mod for phpBB
+
+Many thanks to you all!
+
+
+## Version 3.1
+
+Three new languages are available: Django templates, SQL and Axapta. The latter
+two are sent by [Dmitri Roudakov][1]. However I've almost entirely rewrote an
+SQL definition but I'd never started it be it from the ground up :-)
+
+The engine itself has got a long awaited feature of grouping keywords
+("keyword", "built-in function", "literal"). No more hacks!

+
+
+## Version 3.0
+
+It is major mainly because now highlight.js has grown large and has become
+modular. Now when you pass it a list of languages to highlight it will
+dynamically load into a browser only those languages.
+
+Also:
+
+- Konstantin Evdokimenko of [RibKit][] project has created a highlighting for
+ RenderMan Shading Language and RenderMan Interface Bytestream. Yay for more
+ languages!
+- Heuristics for C++ and HTML got better.
+- I've implemented (at last) a correct handling of backslash escapes in C-like
+ languages.
+
+There is also a small backwards incompatible change in the new version. The
+function initHighlighting that was used to initialize highlighting instead of
+initHighlightingOnLoad a long time ago no longer works. If you by chance still
+use it — replace it with the new one.

+
+## Version 2.9
+
+Highlight.js is a parser, not just a couple of regular expressions. That said
+I'm glad to announce that in the new version 2.9 has support for:
+
+- in-string substitutions for Ruby -- `#{...}`
+- strings from from numeric symbol codes (like #XX) for Delphi
+
+
+## Version 2.8
+
+A maintenance release with more tuned heuristics. Fully backwards compatible.
+
+
+## Version 2.7
+
+- Nikita Ledyaev presents highlighting for VBScript, yay!
+- A couple of bugs with escaping in strings were fixed thanks to Mickle
+- Ongoing tuning of heuristics
+
+Fixed bugs were rather unpleasant so I encourage everyone to upgrade!
+
+
+## Version 2.4
+
+- Peter Leonov provides another improved highlighting for Perl
+- Javascript gets a new kind of keywords — "literals". These are the words
+ "true", "false" and "null"
+
+Also highlight.js homepage now lists sites that use the library. Feel free to
+add your site by [dropping me a message][mail] until I find the time to build a
+submit form.

+
+## Version 2.3
+
+This version fixes IE breakage in previous version. My apologies to all who have
+already downloaded that one!
+
+
+## Version 2.2
+
+- added highlighting for Javascript
+- at last fixed parsing of Delphi's escaped apostrophes in strings
+- in Ruby fixed highlighting of keywords 'def' and 'class', same for 'sub' in
+ Perl
+
+
+## Version 2.0
+
+- Ruby support by [Anton Kovalyov][ak]
+- speed increased by orders of magnitude due to new way of parsing
+- this same way allows now correct highlighting of keywords in some tricky
+ places (like keyword "End" at the end of Delphi classes)

+
+
+## Version 1.0
+
+Version 1.0 of javascript syntax highlighter is released!
+
+It's the first version available with English description. Feel free to post
+your comments and question to [highlight.js forum][forum]. And don't be afraid
+if you find there some fancy Cyrillic letters -- it's for Russian users too :-)
