My plan is to use tree-sitter- to represent a language, which is usually the project name for that language definition. And we just turn it into libtree-sitter-.so/dylib/dll to get the name of the dynamic library. I think your idea has evolved into another thing—translating major-mode to the tree-sitter languages it uses could be useful, but how does it help with the original topic (representing language, translate to library name)? I guess I don't see a problem there? What is the problem?
