Tweaking Vista search

Not sure how much help will be available here considering the general opinions about vista, but anyways :laugh4:

Basically I want to force vista to index the file contents of files without extensions.

It's well documented how to force this for specific file types, but the content I need to be searchable does not and cannot have file extensions; hence my problem.

Any ideas as to a way around the issue, and to essentially trick vista into seeing the files as plain text (which, for the most part, they are)?
