Bare Emacs, 29.1 as downloaded by Scoop (treesit-available-p) => t (treesit-language-available-p 'python t) => (nil not-found ("libtree-sitter-python" "libtree-sitter-python.dll") "No such file or directory")
I try then to activate a language mode such as python-ts-mode Warning (treesit): Cannot activate tree-sitter, because language grammar for python is unavailable (not-found): (libtree-sitter-python libtree-sitter-python.dll) No such file or directory I then try to install using treesit-install-language-grammar and provide as C and C++ compiler "/msys64/ucrt64/usr/bin/gcc.exe" It fails with Warning (treesit): Error encountered when installing language grammar: (treesit-error Command: /msys64/ucrt64/bin/gcc.exe -fPIC -c -I. parser.c Error output: ) Next thing is I try Colin's archive of precompiled DLLs. This does not work, it gives an "Internal Server Error" message when downloading. Next thing I tried was using treesitter-langs from MELPA. This downloads DLLs but they have the wrong name: e.g. python.dll. I tried renaming them in-place, but still does not load them. I moved them to ~/.emacs.d/tree-sitter, and still does not load. In all cases from d), there is no meaningful error message (treesit-language-available-p 'python t) => (nil not-found ("libtree-sitter-python" "libtree-sitter-python.dll") "No such file or directory") The only solution I have been able to find is to rebuild the libraries as described in my previous email.
