mimetype.assign option

mimetype.assign

list of known mimetype mappings NOTE: if no mapping is given "application/octet-stream" is used

Example:

{{{
mimetype.assign   = ( ".png"  => "image/png",
                      ".jpg"  => "image/jpeg",
                      ".jpeg" => "image/jpeg",
                      ".html" => "text/html",
                      ".txt"  => "text/plain" )
}}}

The list is compared top down and the first match is taken. This is important if you have matches like:

{{{
".tar.gz" => "application/x-tgz",
".gz" => "application/x-gzip",
     }}}

If you want to set another default mimetype use:

{{{
...,
"" => "text/plain" )
}}}

as the last entry in the list.
