Description ssffleming 2000-07-19 01:34:24 UTC

Would be more helpful if a message popped up suggesting how to proceed.
When I encountered this, tool/convert to text is what I wanted to do.
File was a gnu makefile and so had no extension.

Testing on IE build 1059, CE v.2 beta

I think the bug is duplicate with 6943.

Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2000-07-19 15:18:59 UTC

Note that in this particular case there is a Makefile module which would provide
something at least. But the point stands.
