Developer: RhinoScript
Summary: How to preview RhinoScript files in Windows Explorer.

I want to preview RhinoScript .rvb files, and perhaps other text files, by clicking on the Preview Pane button in Windows Explorer with Windows 7. Any ideas on how I can accomplish this?

You will have to add entries into the Windows Registry to get this to work on Windows 7.

• Open the Windows Registry Editor, or REGEDIT.EXE.
• Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.FILE_EXT, where .FILE_EXT is the extension you want to add, such as .rvb.
• Make 2 new string values, REG_SZ, under the file extension's key: Content Type, and PerceivedType.
• Set the value of Content Type to text/plain and PerceivedType to text.
