If someone can look a bit further into this, it would be great. > I tried the package found at http://cedric.bosdonnat.free.fr/wordpress/?p=103 However it's an old package and gives an exception when trying to install. The source code for the extension is available at http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/ooo-build/trunk/extensions/coooder/ so it could work again if someone can try to repackage it for LibreOffice. It would be good to have a syntax highlighting extension for Libreoffice. The basic functionality for the highlighting is done using an existing tool such as http://www.webresourcesdepot.com/11-syntax-highlighters-to-beautify-code-presentation/ (Coooder uses GeSHI).
