MyBBCoder | Die deutsche MyBB-Mod-Community

This is my first ever attempt at writing a syntax highlighter. I
have not looked into anyone else's code either, so I'm proud to say
that I thought up all the algorithms used in this code by myself (though
someone else may have already used them, IDK >_>).

Doing a few benchmarks against GeSHi (what's used on most forum systems,
like phpBB and vBulletin), my code performs, on average, 2 times faster.
XML/HTML is done by a dedicated algorithm, so is usually around 5-6 times
faster than GeSHi.
Still, it's rather slow, plus, my algorithm has a little flaw, which, in a
worst case scenario, may cause it to run quite slowly.
For most codes however, it shouldn't be an issue.
I suggest installing a preparser if you plan on using
this.

One thing to note is that this algorithm is more designed for speed than
ease of extensibility, unlike GeSHi.
