Description

Bug report via email

As reported by solomax via email SWF should be treated as binary by default.
As a workaround you may exclude it from RAT scans.

Improvement

At the moment you may set the file encoding to use via -Dfile.encoding. In case of any errors we fallback to UTF-8 in BinaryGuesser yet.
