 A jQuery plugin that adds cross-browser mouse wheel support.
 
-In order to use the plugin, simply bind the "mousewheel" event to an element. It also provides two helper methods called `mousewheel` and `unmousewheel` that act just like other event helper methods in jQuery. The event callback receives three extra arguments which are the normalized "deltas" of the mouse wheel.
+In order to use the plugin, simply bind the `mousewheel` event to an element.
+It also provides two helper methods called `mousewheel` and `unmousewheel`
+that act just like other event helper methods in jQuery. The event callback
+receives three extra arguments which are the normalized "deltas" of the mouse wheel.
 
 Here is an example of using both the bind and helper method syntax.
 
-    // using bind
-    $('#my_elem').bind('mousewheel', function(event, delta, deltaX, deltaY) {
-        console.log(delta, deltaX, deltaY);
-    });
+```js
+// using bind
+$('#my_elem').bind('mousewheel', function(event, delta, deltaX, deltaY) {
+    console.log(delta, deltaX, deltaY);
+});
 
-    // using the event helper
-    $('#my_elem').mousewheel(function(event, delta, deltaX, deltaY) {
-        console.log(delta, deltaX, deltaY);
-    });
+// using the event helper
+$('#my_elem').mousewheel(function(event, delta, deltaX, deltaY) {
+    console.log(delta, deltaX, deltaY);
+});
+```
