txt files shouldn't give failed beautify popup

[tegirvaru]

Describe the bug

when i click save (ctrl+s), i have beautify automatically on. but if i'm in a text file, it says syntax error. shouldn't it know by the extension ".txt" that it isn't beautifyable as code? it should ignore that file.

Hey @tegirvaru, thanks for reporting! Yes you're right, we should ignore the files that isn't "beautifyable".
Fix will land in the next release, end of September. 🚀

@tegirvaru This doesn't happen for text files as i checked the code/tested it out.

Did you happen to rename an html/markdown file to a text file? Can you give the exact steps to reproduce this issue.

Ah! Got it only happens with beautify after save and not with the beautify command.

yeah, i do ctrl+s (changed save ALL keybind in settings) to save all (which also doesn't seem to work often. i know it saves the current, but sometimes when i close the app, it asks me to save more files). i have set it to beautify automatically on save. so you, i always use shortcuts instead of menus. the txt file was added using context click in file tree pane. new file. then name example.txt. thank you for checking, and confirming. 😁 tegir
