Description Paolo Borelli 2005-12-16 20:27:16 UTC

[not sure if this is the right place to request the addition of mime types to
the db]


I'd like to see a mime type for changelog files (prolly text/x-changelog) added
to the db. We need in order to provide syntax highlighting for email adresses
etc inside changelog files.

The mime type should be probably determined only from the name (it's plain text)
as we already do for text/x-readme etc.

I didn't know I could change product. Cool. :) Sorry if I changed to the wrong
one. Attached a simple patch to add x-changelog with the glob "ChangeLog". I'm
really happy gEdit will get ChangeLog highlighting, I was just about to file a
bug demanding it myself. :) gEdit rules.
