Feel free to add them to the list of ASCII files. Note that it's not possible for the provided list to be exhaustive, there are too many different filetypes. The extensions listed there are only a small sample serving as a starting point.

Hi codesquid,

Feel free to add them to the list of ASCII files.

Thanks.

Fom completeness, I modified the "Auto Ascii files" string in %APPDATA%\Roaming\Filezilla\filezilla.xml: am|asp|aspx|aspx.vb|aspx.cs|bat|...

Filezilla honored the ASPX extension by transferring in ASCII, but did not honor the ASPX.VB extension. I suspect the ASPX.CS extension will not be honored.

Note that it's not possible for the provided list to be
exhaustive, there are too many different filetypes.

Understood. Keep in mind that ASPX is fairly standard and well known in the Windows world.
