Description Niels 2006-04-02 15:24:44 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I have two similar text files, without extensions. KDE recognizes one as a text file, the other as "unknown". That's apparently caused by moderately long lines in the second file.

This means, apart from the obvious problem of not being able to simply click to file to open it, that Kdevelop opens the file in a hex viewer...

File that isn't recognized properly.

I'm guessing the newline isn't found.

Comment 3 Dario Andres 2009-05-01 20:28:02 UTC

Does the first file contains non-ascii chars ?

Comment 4 Dario Andres 2009-06-03 20:48:51 UTC

Marking as NEEDSINFO

Comment 5 Niels 2009-06-04 19:02:11 UTC

The main problem is that the attached file isn't recognized correctly, even with 3.5.10. It contains the non-ascii string "æøå".

This was fixed on KDE4.3. Thanks
