As mentioned in a recent thread, our use of the .txt extension for AsciiDoc files prevents most editors from recognizing these files as AsciiDoc automatically. There isn't an editor-independent way to override this, so many contributors miss out on syntax highlighting, linting functionality, and other editor niceties unless they manually override the detection when editing. In addition, many forges produce rich (HTML) renderings of AsciiDoc and other text formats automatically, but this doesn't happen with plain .txt files.
Fantastic. New contributors often start with documentation changes. Let's make it as easy as we can for them.
