Ain't a dupe of #58912 :-)

Though katepart can handle .s / .S files correctly in terms of a simple syntax-highlighting, there in fact does not exist a mime-type for gnu assembler.

Neither katepart, nor KDElibs, nor kdevelop declares a mime type for gnu assembler.

So this is pretty valid and has nothing to do with wrong mime type handling. Someone must write a .desktop file for gnu-assembler in order to have this work.

What mime-type should be used that for? text/x-gnu-asm?
Where should that mime-type be defined? Somewhere in kdelibs? in katepart? in kdevelop?

I think, that kdevelop is not the right place to put that .desktop file, since it should be posibile to open .s / .S files, even if KDevelop ain't installed at all. If so, we should reassign either to kate or some other place in kdelibs.
