(RetroTxt extension) Downloaded text files (.nfo) are sent with the "application/octet-stream" binary header instead of "text/plain" header, and so the extension ignores them
Issue #112
new
Greetings
It’s about the RetroTxt extension (GitHub repo , Chrome extension, Firefox extension )
which converts legacy text (nfo, txt, ASCII and ANSI art) into HTML.
It can also monitor downloaded files and automatically render such files.
The issue is that currently, downloaded text files (.nfo) from srrdb are sent with the application/octet-stream
binary header (see screenshot) instead of text/plain
header, and so the extension ignores them.
Could you please change the sent header to text/plain
?
Thank you
PS I initially reported it in the GitHub RetroTxt repo ( https://github.com/bengarrett/RetroTxt/issues/85 )
and its main author kindly explained that it’s a headers matter.
