Dear Michael,
I can do this,
but would you consider registering an official media type to the IANA ?
https://www.iana.org/form/media-types
In fact, I tried to do that prior to posting a debian bugreport.
But I found no way to get x-pascal modified:
the only possibilities were registering vnd.freepascal or so.
or text/pascal. I would think that text/pascal is an option, although maybe
application/pascal (seeing that application/json exists) will be accepted
easier.
Also I'm not sure how the existing x-pascal and a vnd.pascal will cooperate
if they register the same extension. (.pas, .pp, .inc are all valid
extensions for the freepascal compiler.)
I assume you have more knowledge about this than I do, so any advice you have
on this is welcome !
Michael.
