I opened an issue in their repository but I am skeptical about them using the
.lang file, considering it's gtksourceview 2, which is a little bit outdated.

I am skeptical too -- why should they care when people not even care to ship an
up to date file?
A never file is available here:

But it is old too, its from 2016. Was working well with GTK3 gedit un
Hmm turns out they want committed contributors who are willing to maintain the
.lang file. Which is honestly a fair ask, but I personally think contributing
to the Nim language server is more useful. Not sure if the gtksourceview based
editors play very well with it though.
**Example**
type
Foo = ref object of RootObj
data: int
parent: Foo
proc `=destroy`(self: var type(Foo()[])) =
echo "destroy foo ", self.data
for i in self.fields: i.reset
proc getParent(self: Foo): Foo = self.parent
var foo1
