[jira] [Created] (NETBEANS-3869) Change mimetypes from textmate added languages to better known mimetypes

Christian Lenz created NETBEANS-3869:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Change mimetypes from textmate added languages to better known mimetypes
                 Key: NETBEANS-3869
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-3869
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: textmate-lexer
    Affects Versions: 11.3
            Reporter: Christian Lenz
            Assignee: Jan Lahoda


When I add a new language, the mimetype is just text/x-ext-a and the next one will be text/x-ext-b. But this is not really usefull, when I use the mimetype for some more specific stuff for example adding code completion items or adding actions to those mimetypes. I can't guess, when I have 10 new languages, which one is one.

Solution is, and most of the time it is using the extension.

So adding a new language for kt (Kotlin) files, it will be text/x-kt, for cs (C#) it will be text/x-cs for feature (cucumber feature files) it will be text/x-feature. This is way better IMHO. Using ext-a, ext-b, ext-c says nothing.
