Notepad3: Different icons for different extensions

[tormento]

Would be possible to have different icons for different extensions?

I use Notepad3 for whole bunch of differente type of files, in the same directory often, and it would be really nice to have some more icons.

On first release, simply different color notepads would be great.

Thanks!

The default icons (icons for action "open") for the file extensions are defined in the Registry (e.g. for CSS Files: Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CSSfile\DefaultIcon = C:\Windows\System32\shell32.dll,-151). These icons are used by Notepad3 in the Customize Schemes... dialog, based on the provided filename extensions for the specific lexer (1st extension found).

To change the corresponding Icon, you may use NirSoft's excellent app FileTypesMan :
