Comment (by hayarms):
Hi, I tried to look into this problem a bit and it seems that the
StyledText translator doesn't recognize this file as an ascii file because
it contains special characters like 0x19, 0x14, 0x15 and 0x17.
This file, as already stated, is not recognized by the linux "file"
utility as an ascii text file, but as data, so the translator is right in
not considering it an ascii file it seems.
It's also true that most of text editors around show the content of the
files even if it isn't a perfectly pure ascii file, and probably
StyledEdit should do that too (maybe showing a warning message).
I've made a patch to StyledEdit that should make clear the idea I'm
talking about (it's my first haiku patch, so please be kind to me :p )
