File Type Dictionary Enhancement #1
Description
Description:
The current file type dictionary in the code could benefit from enhancements for better usability and clarity. The goal is to improve the names of file types by incorporating industry-accepted and descriptive labels. This issue highlights the ongoing effort to refine the file type dictionary for a more intuitive user experience.
Current Status:
The proposed changes, focusing on more informative names and the inclusion of both extensions and descriptive labels, are currently unresolved.
Changes Requested:
- Integrate provided updates for more descriptive and industry-accepted file type names.
- Ensure each file type includes both descriptive names and corresponding file extensions.
- Review the organization of the dictionary for improved readability.
Expected Impact:
- Enhanced clarity for users working with different file types.
- Better alignment with industry conventions for file naming.
