Detail: File seems to be binary and cannot be opened as text

Hi, yes I understand your problem, but it was more or less a design decision. Extensions can register any files in vscode and extend the functionality. For example, there is a viewer for the zip display . However, I cannot see whether a corresponding viewer is installed and activated (no API). I am now taking an optimistic approach. I always try to open and display the file. But because I don't notice any errors due to the lack of an API, I think it's the user's responsibility to tell httpyac if an error occurs. This is possible with # @save or # @openWith

Does that help you? Suggestions for improvement?
