Hi,

I installed the tree-sitter-langs package with emacs' package
installer.  I got a directory with a bunch of files in it.

How do I use this package?  I'd like to have the syntax highlighting
for some of the languages the package supports.

What package is that?  Emacs 29 comes with a few something-ts-modes
pre-installed, and there are a few more on GNU and NonGNU ELPA.  The
important thing is to install the grammar, using M-x
treesit-install-language-grammar.

It shows up in package-list-packages.  What else can I say?

I made an entry to treesit-language-source-alist and thus managed to
install it for the language I was looking for.  But that probably
means that I'm not using the package.

This is probably not the right way to do it, and the package seems to
support a lot of languages.  And I don't like these makeshift setups
that never update and when you come back later you have to start over
trying to figure out what you did some months or years ago, like when
you want yet another language.  It's cruft right away.  Aren't
packages supposed to avoid such bad setups?
