Cool, that makes much more sence.

Which julia parser are you using? I installed the "official" one at
here: https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-julia

but some queries in julia-ts-mode.el are not accepted by it, like the
(true) pattern: the parser I downloaded wants "true" instead.

Also julia-ts-mode has this code

(set-electric! 'julia-ts-mode
    :words '("catch"
             "else"
             "elseif"
             "finally"
             "end"))

which seems like a doom macro or something, since I don’t have doom
Emacs complains about undefined function. I commented it out so no
biggy, just FYI.
