Changes to the wiki

Hello, you seem to make the majority of edits on this wiki(are you the owner perhaps?) I have a few proposals:

1. Add a link to each the related documentation for each class's page
2. Include the #includes with project examples
3. Either add a using directive or use the full namespace for each object

I would begin making the respective changes, just thought I should ask someone first.

The Crypto++ wiki is provided by Crypto++. There's no owner per se - its a community effort. Wei Dai is probably closest to an owner.

The sample code that accompanies the page have the #include and using statements.

Feel free to create an account and make changes.

Forgot the signature, sorry. I was mostly referring to pages like this: RSA#Sample_Programs I'm not sure if they are on other pages, I have been viewing only a small subset of the wiki. Very well then, if those changes are acceptable, I will begin changing it when I notice them missing.

Thank you for responding, and thank you for the work you have put into the wiki, it is my main source of documentation for Crypto++.

On another note, do you have contact with Wei Dai? Do you know if he ever considered moving the project's source code to Git/Github?

Template

I added a template to store class info, any ideas for other info we could add to the box?

The template looks good. Jeffrey Walton (talk) 10:01, 22 May 2014 (EDT)

SyntaxHighlighter

On another page (I think it was an article template) it said the wiki was searching for a syntax highlighter for C++ code, here is one: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlighter

And here is an example of the highlighter in action: http://alexgorbatchev.com/SyntaxHighlighter/manual/brushes/cpp.html
