#2837 F4 IDE: Why F4 doesn't treat .fwt as Fan source and doesn't highlight it?

CretinHo Tue 15 Jun 2021

These .fwt sources aren't recognized as Fan source by F4 and thus displayed as plain text without any syntax highlighting and of course no code completion at all.

That's right, I don't think .fwt files have ever been considered as real Fantom source files.

The only place I've ever seen them is in the JS examples, and I believe that was just to help distinguish between client and server source.

So it's not a convention and it's safe to just use the normal .fan extension?

Exactly - I've never used any other extension!
