Zig really needs to have a default syntax highlighting.

A rough criterium for adding a new syntax is that the syntax applies to a fair number of files that are found on a default install of a Linux distro, or files that are needed to build such a distro.

Is there a particular benchmark you use for including a new syntax file?
e.g. github required something like 50 projects written in it and 1000 "stars".

It's not possible to include into nano syntax highlighting for every programming language under the sun.  I try to limit the included syntax files to things that are found on the average GNU/Linux system.  I've never even heard of Zig, nor does it have an entry on Wikipedia.  So... won't do.

I edit zig (https://ziglang.org) code with nano. I would love for syntax highlighting to be included.
