The config of Everything 1.5 already has a list of files to be viewed as text.

text_plain_extensions=a;ans;asc;ascx;asm;asp;aspx;asx;bas;bat;bcp;btm;c;cc;cls;cmd;contact;cpp;cs;csa;csproj;css;csv;cxx;dbs;def;dic;dos;dsp;dsw;efu;ext;faq;fky;h;hhc;hpp;hta;htm;html;htt;htw;htx;hxx;i;ibq;ics;idl;idq;inc;inf;ini;inl;inx;jav;java;js;json;kci;lgn;lst;lua;m3u;mak;mk;odc;odh;odl;php;pl;prc;ps1xml;py;rc;rc2;rct;reg;rgs;rul;s;scc;shtm;shtml;sol;sql;srf;stm;tab;tdl;tlh;tli;trg;txt;udf;udt;user;usr;vbproj;vbs;vcproj;viw;vspscc;vsscc;vssscc;wri;wtx;xml;xsd;xsl;xslt

Also you can have an Explorer preview handler installed which display sources in a better way.
I have the DelphiPreviewHandler installed.

This is what I use:

- create a file extensions.list, for example with content:

Code: Select all

sass
scss
styl
less

- In CMD, go to the folder where you put extensions.lst
- On the prompt, run the following command:

Code: Select all

for /f %x in (extensions.llst) do @reg add HKCU\Software\Classes\.%x /v PerceivedType /d text

(I do remember that a couple of extensions didn't work this way. I do have an alternative method if the one above doesn't work for some extensioins.

The config of Everything 1.5 already has a list of files to be viewed as text.

Not sure, but I thought these were for content indexing and not for previewing files? But if that works too .. all the better

Everything 1.5.0.1324a will now fallback to the system text preview handler for known text/plain extensions.

You can customize text/plain extensions with the text_plain_extensions ini setting.

-or-

To set the system PerceivedType as text for the file extension in your registry:

• From the Start menu, search for: regedit
• Right click Registry Editor and click Run as administrator.
• Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ext
  where .ext is the file extension
• Create a string value named: PerceivedType
• Set the string data to: text

(This will make the system text preview handler work in Everything and Windows Explorer)
