May be. I just write that I want to see.

I know, but it did not work :)

Yes, it's easier then type `recode -wk file1>file2; mv file2 file1`

My patch allow highlight files by extension. Archives to one color, sources 
to other etc. But extensions are compiled in binary, and not configurable in 
run-time. I want to make two things:
  - make highlighting by regexps (not by extensions), and optionally by first 
chars of context.
  - make it configurable through config file.
This feature just make navigation easier.

I made this, but it's too buggy, and I have no time to fix bugs. May be in 
future.
