Description

  • Type of issue :
    • Font-related
    • Feature request

Hello, I hope this is the right place to ask. I wanted to add an icon for files without any extensions (e.g. for a Makefile).

Is this possible?

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look at the codebase to find where file extensions are mapped to icons (likely in a yaml or ruby file). Add a fallback entry for files without extensions (e.g., a default icon for files with no dot).
