Support additional file type icons

[inexorabletash]

A2D originally supported typeless/generic, TXT, BAS, BIN, SYS (two variants) and DIR. Other common/useful types:

$08 (FOT) - never got the use it deserved, IMHO

IIgs-specific types ($5x, $Ax, $Bx, $Cx)

AppleWorks AWP, ASP, ADB

Other types named in BASIC.SYSTEM:

• PAS - $EF - Pascal Area
• CMD - $F0 - ProDOS Command File
• INT - $FA - Integer BASIC Program File
• IVR - $FB - Integer BASIC Variable File
• VAR - $FD - Applesoft BASIC Variable File
• REL - $FE - EDASM Relocatable Code

Of these, CMD may get more use with ProDOS 2.5, and @oliverschmidt expressed interest in REL.

CMD could get a fancy ] prompt/box cursor. Not sure what to do for REL

Concepts for REL:

             ##
           ##  ##
         ##      ##
       ##          ##
     ##              ##
   ##  ####  #### #    ##
 ##    #   # #    #      ##
#      ##### ###  #        #
 ##    #  #  #    #      ##
   ##  #   # #### #### ##
     ##              ##
       ##          ##
         ##      ##
           ##  ##
             ##

             ##
           ##  ##
         ##      ##
       ##          ##

 ######    #######   ##
 ##   ##   ##        ##
 ######    #####     ##
 ##  ##    ##        ##
 ##   ##   #######   #######

       ##          ##
         ##      ##
           ##  ##
             ##

And then VAR if anyone actually uses that:

             ##
           ##  ##
         ##      ##
       ##          ##

 ##    ##   #####    ######
 ##    ##  ##   ##   ##   ##
  ##  ##   #######   ######
   ####    ##   ##   ##  ##
    ##     ##   ##   ##   ##

       ##          ##
         ##      ##
           ##  ##
             ##
 ##################
 #               # ##
 #               #   ##
 #               #     ##
 #               #       ##
 #               ##########
 #                        #
 #     ###        ##      #
 #    ## ##     #######   #
 #   ##   ##  ##  ##      #
 #  ##     ##   ######    #
 #  #########     ##  ##  #
 #  ##     ##  #######    #
 #  ##     ##     ##      #
 #                        #
 ##########################

(these could re-use existing masks, which saves space)

And then CMD:

             ##
           ##  ##
         ##      ##
                   ##
  ##########
        ####    ##  ##  ##
        ####      ##  ##
        ####    ##  ##  ##
        ####      ##  ##
        ####    ##  ##  ##
  ##########
                   ##
         ##      ##
           ##  ##
             ##

... which doesn't quit fit in the same mask, but close...

The latter get interesting if someone comes up with a MCS player app or some such.

Hi,

Other types named in BASIC.SYSTEM:

[...]

- REL - $FE - EDASM Relocatable Code [...] Of these, CMD may get more use with ProDOS 2.5 <https://prodos8.com/releases/prodos-25/>, and @oliverschmidt <https://github.com/oliverschmidt> expressed interest in REL.

My reason: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.sys.apple2/oCnSvuabaK8/NQYty8Fr5KgJ - you may very well consider it inappropriate... Regards, Oliver

Hah, fun read. Did you settle on an auxtype?

Since an icon in A2D wont impose any more meaning than a CAT listing, I don't even need to have an opinion on repurposing the type. 😁 But I do agree with the consensus that confusion is extremely unlikely.

Any preference on icon? I think I lean towards the simple diamond here, as the file is very BIN-like.

Just $0000.

You said it!

No. The diamond is perfectly fine with me. Regards, Oliver

How's this?

Nice :-)

Squeezed in CMD:

Calling this "done" for now. There's room for more, but will have to start moving existing bitmaps out of LC space into dead spaces in AUX.
