I'm using yzhang.markdown-all-in-one for previewing markdown files. This works a treat for automagically applying syntax highlighting to both the plain-text and the generated output.

This plugin seems to have some mechanism for picking up installed syntax highlighters based on the tags on markdown code blocks. I usually find that installing an appropriate plugin Just Works (for python, plantuml, Rust, etc.)

Is there some way to register this plugin as a syntax highlighter for these embedded code blocks?

apologies for not providing more detail, i'm really not clear on how this is implemented for other 'languages'. Hoping you'll know more than me
