As 9.40 can now add PFA for no-extension files, I tried to add just a comma, or "*," to the text formats preview, but no success. Since these are all plain text files, I can easily see them in the Raw Preview tab, but it would be nice not to have to switch tabs. Is there another way to accomplish this? I mean, for a file with no extension to show in the preview tab as a text file.
On a related matter - the .doc and .docx files still get the infamous "do you want to open or save" question instead of a preview. Are we getting close to a fix?
Regards Emil

Good idea. Later...

Fix comes in September.

Great because this also affects powerpoint and excel file extension too. I'm sure if probably affects a number of MS products in addition. Good to know that this will be fixed.

Well, I hope I can fix it.

Me too...whilst on the subject of previews it would be nice for those of us with widescreen monitors/dual monitors to have the ability to have the preview windows running vertically down the screen rather than horizontally across. This would seem, to me at least, to be a more natural preview of a file. Is this something you are considering?
