Perforce file types for common file extensions

To learn about mapping file names to Perforce file types, see the p4 typemap command and the File type modifiers.

Some examples of how a file extension might correspond to a Perforce file type:

Perforce file type	File Extension	Note
`text`	.css, .html, .ini, .java, .js, .ps, .svg	text saved in the client's character set
text+wx	.sh	shell script that is writable and executable
`binary`	.dll, gif, .pdf, .png, .jpg, .zip	image files, compressed archives
`binary+F`	`.avi`, .gz, .mpg, .docx	Helix does not compress this file type, which might have its own compression
`binary+w`	`.exp`, .lib	some software development file types that should be writable by default
binary+x	.exe	executable on client
