It would be nice if there was a way to add other file extensions to "Include" as well as "Exclude". I have a type of text file I use in Visual Studio that accepts regions. It would be great if VAX would show me these regions as it would if the file had a c# extension. You have a way to say "ignore" extensions, how about adding "additional" extensions to use for C# or C++ behavior on it.

Isn't it possible to rename your file from .txt to .cs?

You can tell the IDE and VA to treat a custom file extension as C++ as explained in this FAQ:

http://docs.wholetomato.com?W328

you may be able to do the same for C#, but I have never tried.

However this may have unwanted side effects unless the file content is very close to actual C++ code.
