Is it possible to write a type file "bin_or_exe" which can detect the executable bit of data before they are part of Galaxy's indexed data.
Thanks, Ketan
You haven't convinced me this is a good idea, but I would try this by defining a new datatype class in Python with a sniffer method which just checks for the executable bit (probably defined as a subclass of the binary datatype, see [1]) and then add this and its sniffer to the datatype XML file.
