For the short snippets in the manual, I find the synatx highlighting
more distracting than helpful.  I personally would prefer it without.  I
do use syntax highlighting when editing files and find it very useful,
but that's when there are large blocks of code, and the highlighting is
helpful for visually parsing it.
