Well, I added them to the master copy as well! ;)

Yes, some way for the user/bundle developer to educate TM about known 
good text file extensions would be a nice addition!

I guess for the next version I can let it additionally check the 
extensions given in the various syntax files.  Additionally I can put a 
“Treat File as Text|Binary” in the per file context menu (in the 
project drawer), and the user will then be able to change the status of 
a file (and TM will remember it).


Kind regards Allan
