Working on improvements for the images to mimetype in psppire, I got to thinking about the usefulness of an image for syntax files. On Linux and OS X at
least, the image is not used (to be recognized as plain text) and MS Windows only has an aesthetic value, since a user can not open a syntax file directly in psppire.
Do you think that I should keep an image for syntax files?
On the other hand I think that the operating system must define an icon for the type of file (plain text). It would
also be very useful to open a syntax file directly with psppire syntax editor, or at least in the dialog to select "open with ...".
