 * I would like to find a way to use a code syntax highlighter and allow for sections
   of the text to have tool-tips and links; the following link is an example of 
   the behavior I would like: [http://serversetup.global-domain.com/operating-systems/centos/setup/](http://serversetup.global-domain.com/operating-systems/centos/setup/)
   
   I use the site for keeping notes on servers I setup (personal and work) and figured
   the info might be useful to others so I’ve started cleaning it up and adding 
   info/tool-tips/man pages like the above. All the other pages are currently private
   since they aren’t marked up, I’ll make them public when I can format them like
   above… I’ve tried various combinations of syntax highlighters and tool-tip plugins
   but I always run into the same problem; the tool-tip short-code or html gets 
   printed on the page instead of working as a tool-tip (same with links on non-
   url text) or doesn’t show up and doesn’t work either. Oh, even though the above
   page doesn’t contain any “code” per-say, other pages do, including bash, php,
   config files and more which is why I was looking for a syntax highlighter… Any
   suggestions on a plugin or combination of plugins that will do this?
