As it is right now, some scripts in this repo @ GitHub are detected as Prolog, not Perl, which screws up their syntax coloring in creative ways, e.g.
scriptassist.pl,adv_windowlist.pl,newsline.pl.This PR aims to fix that by slamming a line in
.gitattributesoverriding this (I have no idea how does this work by default, and why only a subset of Perl scripts is affected).(Note: this won't work immediately - linguist job has to visit this repo)
