or possibly point me to the place in the manual which explains
which *types* of files get tagged? I really dont want to install a new
global if not necessary and feel sure there must be a simple way to
specify in the .globalrc which file types are tagged. I thought maybe
"suffixes" but that's been deprecated apparently : I'm surely missing
something obvious.
