Please add filetype for Haxe (.hx) #220

Please include support for the Haxe source code filetype. Haxe source code files end in .hx.

Thanks so much for ack!!

(BTW, just upgraded to 3.0.2 after having used v2.02 for a long while (whoops, hadn't thought to upgrade), and laughed out loud at ack --bar. :) Also happy to see that, in typical Perlish fashion, ack --thpppppt works for any number of p's > 1, though I'm guessing it's supported that since the beginning.)

Thanks, I'm glad you dig it.

Are you using a --type-add in your .ackrc to add the Haxe yourself?

--type-add=haxe:ext:hx

uvtc commented 5 years ago

Ooof. Forgot I could do that. Added that to my .ackrc. Thanks.

petdance commented 5 years ago

Let's see if anyone else thinks Haxe would be a good idea to add. I try not to add new types based on a single request.

uvtc commented 5 years ago

Sure.

For anyone interested, it's free software, around since 2006. See also Haxe at wikipedia and the Haxe online library repository (CPAN-alike).
