Followups to this post probably belong in chat forum?

http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/SystemInfo currently tells me that we are
running version 1.9.4 of MoinMoin wiki.

Meanwhile, https://moinmo.in/HelpOnParsers#highlight_parser (actually, the
short section just above that, but that url is so long I expect that most
email systems would mangle it) tells me that this version of the wiki
software supports Pygments for language parsing.

And, looking at the list of languages supported, J really belongs on that
list.

Looking at the documentation on pygments -
http://pygments.org/docs/lexerdevelopment/ - I think we should be able to
implement a J word recognition mechanism.

(That said, GeSHi - an alternative to pygments - already supports J - but I
think it would be a bigger problem to convert the wiki documents to a wiki
syntax for a wiki that uses GeSHi than it would be to just implement
highlighting support for pygments.)

I'm not sure if I'll have time for this project, but I wanted to leave a
note here - which at least mentions the issue - in case someone else has
the time.

Thanks,
