Per (https://github.com/exercism/meta/issues/91)
it looks like the syntax highlighter is "prism" (https://prismjs.com/).
I added ".st" for Pharo... (
https://github.com/exercism/meta/issues/90#issuecomment-399412215).

It briefly crossed my mind to wonder if using ".st" for both traditional
fileout format and tonel format might cause complications,
but that might be jumping at shadows.  Ultimately the both comprise
Smalltalk syntax.
