Colored codes

It would be nice if the codes that we write to each other could be colored so we can easily see what what is. We could have a little drop down/up menu beside the typing area so we can choose which we use at that moment. A little bit like the mcfunction in Atom.

  So, I assume you're talking about Syntax Highlighting. If so, I have great news, Discord already offers it!
  
  You can use:
  ```language
  code
  ```
  in order to show highlighted code in a particular programming language on Desktop (on Mobile this still doesn't show the highlighting, Discord please!)

  Here's an example in Python
  ```python
  def hello(person):
      if not person:
          person = "world"
      print(f"Hello, {person}!")
  ```
  
  This does not yet support Minecraft function files specifically, but, that appears to be because Discord uses a third party library for syntax highlighting and they don't yet support it!
