Morpho

Images and text are now being displayed correctly.
PDFs and other binary files will still show as text with crazy characters...

I'm using the MIME type from
javax.activation.MimetypesFileTypeMap
which may or may not include all mime types we'd be interested in, depending on the user's system.
I notice the png and xls are not interpreted and become just application/octet stream with the default mime.types file in the activation.jar.
We could include a beefier mime.types file in the Morpho distribution or programmatically enter specific mime types or just leave it.

I'll make sure to augment the MIME-type handling to include:
pdf
xls
mdb
png
csv
tab
and any others that are added to this bug.

For non-displayable files (pdf), we should not show them as text (as is currently the case).

Jim's request:
All data entities should be exportable on their own.

I'm going to see about adding the mime.types file to the morpho-config.jar under the META-INF/ directory as described here:
http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/javabeans/glasgow/javadocs/javax/activation/MimetypesFileTypeMap.html

now packaging the mime.type in META-INF/
we can add more as needed.

closing this now. if we need more mime types mapped, then we can add them as needed
