-----------------------------------------------------
Appreciate your responses here.
_Perhaps, if the file is application/octet-stream, run the charset detector on
the bytes and if the charset is detected as Shift-JIS then return text/pain._
1) Do you see that I can add this logic in TextDetector and create a PR? But I
believe I won't have tika-parsers dependency in tika-core. Or are you
suggesting I do this in my application layer?
2) Even if i do that (either in tika-core / or in my app logic) I think the
best I can do is without file name, if returned type is
application/octet-stream, I can char encoding detection and confirm it's
text/plain. But for other textual files, won't the problem exist? Like csv
files always with Shift-JIS. Or do you think problem is specific to text/plain
and all other SJIS files should work (without file name)?
