A self-hosted alternative to putting your code snippets on Gist.

== Description ==

You use WordPress because you want control over your writing. Why give Gist or Codepen your code snippets? WP-Gistpen is a self-hosted replacement for your WordPress blog.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How does this work? =

WP-Gistpen registers a new `gistpens` post type. Instead of posting your public code snippets on Gist, go to Gistpens -> Add New, and paste in your code.

You can also create and insert a Gistpen directly into your post/page from the visual editor by clicking the pen button. From the pop-up, select one of the recent Gistpens or create a new one by pasting in your code and clicking "Insert".

After inserting the shortcode, your code will appear in your post, highlighted by [Alex Gorbatchev's Syntax Highlighter](http://alexgorbatchev.com/SyntaxHighlighter/).

= What is the future of this plugin? =

Eventually, I hope to make this plugin interoperable with Gist, allowing you to import your current Gists, fork other people's Gists into your Gistpen, and publishing your Gistpens to Gist.

Additionally, I want to make Gistpens embeddable on other websites the same way you can embed Gists, but both of those larger features are likely a long way off.
