This is a great feature. However, I have a bunch of projects that already have readme files, however they are written as plain text, with the .txt extension. I understand I can convert them or even just change the file extension, but it would be nice if readme.txt files were also supported. GitHub, for instance, still supports readme.txt files in this way. Is there a way to configure a project to use a readme.txt file instead of a readme.md file?\r\n\r\n---\r\n#### Document Details\r\n\r\n⚠ *Do not edit this section.
