A List of Google Prettify Language Codes

Question

I cannot find this anywhere and I swear I used to be able to very simply without much prying. Can anyone help me? Thanks. I would appreciate it. Also, does prettify support Batch?

Answer 1

I thought it would be helpful to have an actual list rather than just a link. I found it in the loader directory that @MikeSamuel linked to from Javascript code prettifier. As the readme states, the prettify.js comments are the authoritative source. However, What is syntax highlighting and how does it work? provided a better formatted list, so I will copy that below. Refer to the the links for the most up-to-date information.
