WGSL and Metal aren't listed by tokei

[Weihnachtsbaum]

754 added support for WGSL and Metal but running tokei doesn't list them for me.

$ ls
example.metal  example.txt  example.wgsl

$ tokei

Also, they aren't listed as supported languages in the README.

Was this tested on a release or on a manual build from master?

tokei hasn't had a stable release since 2021. Creator seems to have gotten a bit distracted. With the recent Alpha releases it seems that someone has it thankfully covered now, I expect an up to date stable release soon now.

I use the AUR package tokei-git, and before the last release, which built a non-functional binary, it showed wgsl just fine.

If you've got cargo, then run cargo install --git https://github.com/XAMPPRocky/tokei.git --tag v13.0.0-alpha.1 tokei to get the latest non-broken aplha release.

It finds wgsl in my project, though admittedly formatting could be improved:

And it should also be mentioned in the Readme, since thats from the default (master) branch. So that should be fixed.

I also could not find the support in any changelog, though I'm not so sure how complete these are supposed to be.

Hey, I know you probably don't mean for this to come off as rude, but it's important to keep in mind that no one pays for me to provide regular tokei releases, and when I have a full time job, multiple other popular projects, and a life outside of programming, releases are going to be few and far between.

[9SMTM6]

Sorry if it came of as rude. It wasn't meant as that, simply as a statement of fact.

I do feel with you. I have kept away from releasing anything 'proper' amongst others because I did not want that responsibility.

Tokei is an amazing tool, and you've got my admiration. I've happily used the last alpha release, which worked just fine for me.

Yes, thank you, I didn't notice that. The alpha version works fine.
