how to handle special files

[Redhawk18]

Hey, I'm working on a program that uses file icons for different files. A common problem this runs into is that people want files like a Dockerfile and a docker-compose.yml to have the same icon. This happens all over the place, for example Cargo.toml and Cargo.lock most icon packs have different icons for those two than any old .toml file.

I wasn't sure if this was out of scope of the project.

Thank you for your issue! I'm not sure how the question relates to tokei?

Because its the same as counting languages, in many ways. As a end user of the library it provides a solution to being able to do something different if this toml is a Cargo.toml or a random .toml. This works exactly like icons do in VSCode if you use that.

I wanted to make a issue since I wasn't even sure this is within scope of the project.

In other words, are you requesting that tokei has a special language type for these special files? E.g. docker-compose.yml would have the DockerCompose type? Or perhaps an additional group field on Language that would be Group::Docker in this case?
