Comment:

 Patch attached, I've tested a few plugins with .swf and a few other file
 types which were having issues, This appears to have fixed it.

 A Ascii file is anything from this table: http://www.asciitable.com/ of
 Space through to ~, If it contains any other characters its a Binary file.

 I havnt tested with files with UTF8 characters, I suspect they'd be
 claimed as a binary file.. however i'm not sure FTP could transfer those
 files as ASCII anyway.. Needs testing.
