Description
Hi, I am trying to make a skecth with fragmetn and vertex shaders, but on creating new file I am getting ".glsl is not a valid extension". It worked fine for Older version of Processing.
Any possible help is appriciable !
Expected Behavior
Expected behavior is to create file with glsl extension
Current Behavior
not creating file instead showing error in creating glsl file
Steps to Reproduce
- open PDE in MacOS (Processing 4.2)
- create new tab -> file_name.glsl
- There you go
Your Environment
- Processing version: Processing 4.2
- Operating System and OS version: MacOS Venture 13.4
- Other information:
Possible Causes / Solutions
Not sure maybe some API change in macos in processing (maybe I am not up to date with latest changes)

Research direction
Start in the PDE's new-tab handling and reproduce the error on Processing 4.2 with a filename ending in .glsl on macOS. Trace how the requested extension is validated, then verify that creating a .glsl tab succeeds without the invalid-extension message.
