ok, so help me out here i've looked at filetype vim, and i see nothing that associates _.txt modules with ft=txt
whether i enter my 'ai' modules with the script or by navigating to where they are and, with my bloody fingers typing 'gvim ai_200609.txt', still, inside the module, filetype is undefined are we only supposed to use vim for exotic languages? is 'text' deprecated? i thought it used to suffice to have an extension of .txt now the ground is shifting under my feet... sc
