# stupdate\_languages(7)

update StepTalk script languages

## NAME

stupdate\_languages - update StepTalk script languages

## SYNOPSIS

**stupdate\_languages**

## DESCRIPTION

StepTalk is trying to determine script language by the file extension. Each language has a list of file extensions which StepTalk uses to determine if a file contains a script that it can process.

To prevend expensive searching for file extensions in languages, StepTalk uses a dictionary with file-language mapping. That dictionary is stored in ~/Library/StepTalk/Configuration and is created the first time you use some StepTalk tool. If you install a new language, that file has to be updated.

## OPTIONS

None.
