GTKtalog uses MIME types to store the file types. So does Gnome, Kde ... The MIME type of a file is determined by the extension or by the content (best).
A MIME type is a string such as "application/zip" for (.zip files) or "image/jpeg" for (.jpg files)
In four places within GTKtalog, you are asked to type a MIME type (all in the preferences):
Adding/Editing a plugin
Adding/Editing a VFS
MIME types to skip during scan
MIME types icons
If there is no known MIME type for your extension, you'll have to add it in the Gnome control center : Document Handlers/File types and programs. See the Gnome Control Center documentation for more information.
