Anyone know how to add file types to search in for TODOs for the Tasks pane?

If I go to "Configure Filters" in the Tasks pane I only show a few types in the "Show items of type" list. I would like Eclipse to search other types for the TODO string.

Thanks!

In Eclipse there is a way to add more tags (more than the TODO, XXX and the other default one). You could add WTF if you wanted. It sounds like yiou know this already though.

The area you can add WTF would be the logical place for the filetypes I would think. Sounds like you tried there already.

FWIW: What version of Eclipse are you using? I'll fire up eclipse and see what I can find.

You might need to add more file types to the Java type.

I jsut had a revelation. Those TODO and XXXs are part of the java style guidelines. Thus tied to java source files.
