If you already know about Syntax Highlighting, please check this post as well to see that, it is not only Syntax Highlighting, but actually anything like jQuery can be loaded too using the same method.

The only limitation is, you need to add the codes while in HTML editing mode. Do not switch back to visual mode before publishing the post with codes. We will try to override this bug of TinyMCE.

You can not use this method in free WordPress blog as javascript embedding is not allowed, although I have not tested, it should not work.

You need not to install any extra plugin, thereby from homepage to about us page will not load any extra CSS and JS. Moreover, no change in MySQL database or the call that actually increases the server’s burden is excluded. As I have said before, most of us never use Syntax Highlighting throughout the blog.
