Is there a help topic on multi-line code blocks (https://blog.dynalist.io/2019-december-update/)? Namely I’d like to know which languages are supported and how to specify the language exactly (because sometimes it’s detected incorrectly).
Dynalist uses highlight.js for the code highlighting, from a quick look at the dynalist.io source code it seems to support these 34 languages:
apache, bash, coffeescript, cpp, cs, css, diff, go, http, ini, java, javascript, json, kotlin, less, lua, makefile, xml, markdown, nginx, objectivec, perl, php, plaintext, properties, python, ruby, rust, scss, shell, sql, swift, typescript, yaml
You can specify the language to use by putting the name after the initial three back-ticks:
```sql
This is hightlighted as SQL, no matter what I put here.
```Thanks @_Lasar! Now I understand why it didn’t work when I specified tex. Though supported by highlight.js seems not supported by Dynalist.
So here is a proposal for dev - add this info to Formatting reference.
