I've been planning to try to fix it after I finish my current project
in a few weeks. I definitely can't do it before then. I'm thinking
along the lines of a fix so that if a file isn't created as type
'TEXT', then regardless of any subsequent changes it will never be
translated. This will preserve file integrity for Mac users, which I
consider more important than ensuring all text files get translated
for Unix users (or maybe Samba).
