Bug ID: 411259
Summary: Preview opens scripts as binary files
Product: ark
Version: 19.04.3
Platform: Slackware Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
This is a new behavior, not sure when it started happening, but it was not to
long ago. After opening compressed source files and selecting for example
"configure" or "setup.py" to view the contents, the preview is opened with a
binary viewer instead with a text viewer. In the past Ark always opened as
text. I have noted this with any file the starts with "#!" but not always. It
appears that file extension may also used to determine how to open such files.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE Using ark-19.04.3-tar.xz
1. Open a compressed file that has scripts in it.
2. Click on a script file to preview it.
OBSERVED RESULT
File is previewed with a binary viewer.
EXPECTED RESULT
File is previewed with a text viewer (as it has in the past).
