i dont see the issue reported in the python parser: https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-python/issues

How can we add different highlight for __dunder__ methods a.k.a. magic methods? Is there a TS highlight group for that? I know that in tree-sitter-python there is pythonTSConstructor for __init__ method that I can customize, but I couldn't figure out for other magic methods.

You could try elisp-tree-sitter as soon as this issue is closed.

The feature isn't working well yet on C and C++. If I recall correctly it's based on Tree-Sitter[1] parsing, and there are still too many bugs in corresponding grammars - tree-sitter-c[2] and tree-sitter-cpp[3]. Hopefully, it will be greatly improved in the future as the share of the existing and newly written code in C and C++ is quite significant.

There's no way to highlight format specs currently, since the treesitter C grammar doesn't specify them. You could open an issue on the tree-sitter-c repo.
