[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Feature Request: opening binary files (#1508)

Hi,

Most text editors allow binary files to be opened. Most of the text is gibberish but they display it. But Geany simply rejects to display it because the file is binary. I think it would be nice if Geany would also show the file. One possible use case is to see file headers (for instance for PDFs the first couple of characters indicating that it is PDF).

Best,
SarenT
