Following the migration to Miraheze and then WikiTide, RC now uses [https://pygments.org Pygments] (rather than GeSHi) for syntax highlighting and I have written a lexer for Wren which is included in version 2.14.0. However, at the time of writing (August 2023), RC is still using version 2.11.2 and it is not known when this will be updated to the latest version. |

In the meantime 'ecmascript', which we currently use for the 'lang' attribute, is supported by virtue of a GeSHi mapping to the 'javascript' lexer and highlights all Wren 0.4.0 keywords except: ''is'', ''construct'' and ''foreign''. I suggest we continue to use that until the Wren lexer is available after which we can use the latter for new tasks and when updating existing tasks. A major effort would be needed to update all existing tasks straightaway given that there are more than 1,600 of them as at |

As a language mainly designed for embedding, Wren's standard library is (of necessity) quite small and I have therefore decided to create some additional modules to assist with writing Rosetta Code tasks so the same code does not have to be written or copy/pasted time and time again thereby bloating a task's script code unnecessarily. The ones written so far are listed below: |
