The problem is that, on both my Catalina Mac and Mojave Mac, TM’s plugin is registered as being responsible for public.source-code.

But I get the built in Text QL generator being used on Catalina.

I have plenty of, for example, *.applescript files. On Mojave, they’re nicely themed when you QL them. On Catalina, the Text viewer is used. On both machines, the OS thinks they’re public.source-code.

However I have told Finder to open all .scala files with TextMate and indeed it is listed as the default App for opening the files. Not sure if there is something else that must be done so that Finder knows that this is a source code file?
