We may want to add code highlighting for code fragments in WikiText.

Some idea for implementation:

• Call markdown processor with a different ToHTMLSerializer by subclassing it and change the body of visit(VerbatimNode) as described in pegdown issue 21. The body should add the class prettyprint to the <code>-tag.
• Add a function to WebDSL’s built-in.app that includes the appropriate js/css files for google-code-prettify and calls prettyPrint(); This function needs to be called to enable code highlighting on the current page. Or we turn it on by default…
