## Description

Cipher is a settings-free plugin that allows commenters to publish (pre-formatted)
code.

Functionalities:

 * Backticks (`) can be used as an alternative to the `<code>` tag to mark up both
   in-line and pre-formatted code within a comment.
 * Formatted chunks of code or pieces of code longer than 70 characters posted via
   the comment form automatically wrapped in `pre+code` tags.
 * Special characters in code submitted through the comment form automatically converted
   to HTML entities.

## Installation

Upload in the ‚plugins’ folder and activate.

### 󠀁[Partially broken as of 4.9.4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/partially-broken-as-of-4-9-4/)󠁿

The snippet overlay doesn’t open due to some Javascript error, but the wrapping 
button in post editor still works fine. UPD: a version with the snippet overlay 
fixed can be found here https://github.com/Exove/cipher. Would be glad to integrate
the changes into the WP.org plugin, but can’t find any contact of the author.
