[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Objective-C files always detected as Matlab/Octave (#2341)

[Will Brokenbourgh]

I have copied the system `filetype_extensions.conf` to the `~/.config/geany` directory and changed Matlab/Octave's file extension definition to `*.matlab` from `*.m` but Geany is still detecting `*.m` files as Matlab/Octave.  I did the 'Reload configuration' menu item and even quit Geany, then launched it again and it still detects Objective-C files as `Matlab/Octave`.

I also tried renaming `filetype_extensions.conf` to `~filetype_extensions.conf~` in Geany's 'system' directory and this is still happening.

**System Info** ℹ️ 
* macOS 10.14.6
* Geany 1.36 from Geany website (not MacPorts)

`~/.config/geany/filetype_extensions.conf` **relevant section**

```
Matlab/Octave=*.matlab;
Nim=*.nim;
NSIS=*.nsi;*.nsh;
Objective-C=*.m;*.mm;*.h;
```
