Turn off QtCreator interpretation of .doc file as Word binary.

[FreddeB]

Hi,

I use .doc for Doxygen documentation purposes. When I try to edit a .doc file in QtCreator it is rendered as binary.

Is there any way to turn the .doc interpretation to not be a Word file and just a simple text file?

Regards

@FreddeB Word files are not simple text files. They are zip archives containing XML files and some other stuff. I do not think QtCreator supports Word files. Personally I would not use such proprietary formats for documentation.

@jsulm I think @FreddeB just uses the same extension which I don't think is a good idea since it's already something that is attributed.

Thanks for the feedback,

I agree, I've changed my file extensions to '.txt' instead.

Have a good day!
