# [Plugin: SyntaxHighlighter Evolved] C# doesn’t work as a language alias

 * Why doesn’t C# work as a language alias? I can use csharp and c-sharp, but I 
   can’t use C#? Alex Gorbatchev’s site seems to indicate I should be able to do
   that?
 * Thanks,

 * Alex Gorbatchev’s site lists what aliases his script supports, not what shortcodes
   and language alises my plugin supports.
 * I opted to only support aliases with letters, numbers, and dashes to keep things
   simple and less prone to breaking (WordPress shortcodes probably shouldn’t have`#`‘
   s in them).

 * Makes sense.
 * Do you have a list of these aliases? It would be helpful if that was part of 
   the documentation.

 * Here’s a list of the primary alias for each language my plugin supports:

 * Note that `[language]` support was removed for WordPress.com-usage — you can 
   still use it on your self-hosted blog.
