I was thinking the same, somehow we have a problem with pipes in Qt 5.15, I should give a look at it…
JavaScript and TypeScript syntax highlighting
This seems only to say that TEXMACS_HOME_PATH is not defined in the environment. You can try to set it (check a shell session in TeXmacs to see the correct value) and try manually again, but I guess that @jeroen is right.
The Shell session is also crashing… seems that only the Scheme session is able to run. I will try @jeroen suggestion (the generic tar.gz) today! Thanks for your support

I just had a look at the highlighting already in TeXmacs and there is in fact a JavaScript highlighter there as well. It just doesn’t seem to be very well accessible from the menus.
You can insert it either by doing \javascript-code followed by the Enter key, or you can insert a code block for another language (e.g. “Fortran code”) and then change the language to JavaScript from the toolbar.

Oh wow, yes, this is the result that I was looking for! And it looks even okay with added type annotations (TypeScript).

There is still the issue of showing line numbers, for which there are two solutions none of which I have tried myself
How to add line numbering? (refers to https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/fangle)

For code blocks you could also use \numbered

can anyone help me to get it working
I get “Busy…” all the time
Can you be more specific? What is the operation that you are performing? I guess there should be some problem running Python maybe? We also need to know the OS and the version of TeXmacs.
You could also try running a Python session, to see if TeXmacs can find your Python executable.
From there, try “import pygments”. It could be that TeXmacs uses a different Python than the one for which you have installed Pygments.
But some more details are definitely necessary.
I had the same problem and was able to avoid it by installing the generic TeXmacs package, see my answer above.
thanks for reply!
here some informations:
- OS: macOS
- TexMacs version: 2.1.1
I can use a python session in TexMacs (Executable > Python)
there I can run a "print(“hello world”), but when I try to execute
“import pygments”, it is telling me that there is no module called “import pygments”
but pygements is already installed:
“Requirement already satisfied: pygments in /opt/homebrew/lib/python3.9/site-packages (2.11.2)”
I installed TexMacs with brew and by downloading the dmg
where can I get the “generic package of TeXmacs” ?
hope that helps
On Mac there are several versions of python installed usually. You would have to be sure that you installed pygments for the python system that got run by TeXmacs. Maybe TeXmacs picks up the system python while you installed pygments for the Homebrew’s python installation.
here is what I have so far:
I created a python executable
(Insert > Fold > Executable > Python)
There I added this code:
import sys
print(sys.version)
output:
3.8.9 (default, Oct 26 2021, 07:25:54)
[Clang 13.0.0 (clang-1300.0.29.30)]
On another python executable I did this:
import pip
pip.main(['install', 'pygments'])
output:
WARNING: pip is being invoked by an old script wrapper. This will fail in a future version of pip.
Please see https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5599 for advice on fixing the underlying issue.
To avoid this problem you can invoke Python with '-m pip' instead of running pip directly.

Not sure what to do next
Your output indicates indeed that TeXmacs is using a different version of Python (3.8) than what is used from the command line (3.9). You can check which one TeXmacs finds by doing (url-resolve-in-path (python-command)) in a Scheme session.
in a Scheme Session I used this:
(url-resolve-in-path (python-command))
output:
Scheme] (url-resolve-in-path (python-command))
<url /usr/bin/python3>
what can I do next?
You can try to install pygments for the Python version that TeXmacs uses:
/usr/bin/python3 -m pip install pygments
