Definition for application/x-t602 mime-type.

Thanks for your bug report and your patience!
According to http://tinyurl.com/96nkn the number after "@CT " is arbitrary. I
have no clue whether we can use a regexp-like syntax for that. Bastien, Christophe?

Petr: btw. the T602 files are text files, right, i.e. you can open them in an
arbitrary text editor and it won't turn out to be garbage?

Don't make a separate file out of those types, they should be integrated in
freedesktop.org.xml.in

don't put the lang in here, the default is en, but mark those as translatable
(_comment instead of comment)

Are you sure about this magic? Do you have some example files that use this
magic?

Obviously, this should go.

Yes. The t602 program used the "@CT x" statement to declare in which encoding
the file was (there were three possibilities: the ibm852 or so, the Kamenicky
and the socialist koi8). This happend to be the first statement in the file,
so it can be used for identifying...

.txt was regulary used by many users as an ending for t602 documents - don't
blame me!(I don't really understand how to define it, but a file with *.txt with
a "@CT x" magic SHOULD be identitied as a valid t602 file. Without it e.g.
nautilus would complain, etc.).

>Petr: btw. the T602 files are text files, right, i.e. you can open them in an

Not really. It's almost text with some little garbage (special/unused ascii
chars were used for simple markup like bold, or italics).

Well, that's Your bussines, I just kindly asked to add support for this document
type ;)
