`syntax` is a plugin that add support to ikiwiki for syntax highlighting through the *vim* editor and its perl interface [[cpan Text::VimColor]], so it depends on a vim functional installation.
The plugin inserts a fragment of HTML with special marks from a file or a string text. It accepts the following parameters:
* **file**: Path to the source file. It must exist on every rebuild of the wiki.
* **text**: Text string with the source.
* **description** (optional): little description about the content.
