: I don't grasp what the nature of the failure is, but there are a number of things that ought to be done anyway; the set of useful things to highlight has evolved since the Tcl langfile was written and there's at least one significant issue that I know of (namespaced names highlight wrongly). Alas, I don't know how long it will take me though. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 19:21, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
:: Just whip it together using [http://rosettacode.org/geshi/ AutoGeSHi] and send the files my way. I'll drop them in for live testing, and we can iterate through it. :) --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 21:36, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
::: The format of the file isn't the problem. Working out what exactly to put in there is. There are a number of syntactic tricky bits; cases where the language parser works a bit differently to most languages. The most noticeable ones are that the language has no keywords, and comments are handled during parsing, not lexing. Moreover, I've a lot of other things on right now at both work and home; no blame, but that's how it is. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 23:11, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
