Automatically get language from file extension

[muuvmuuv]

It would make it way more comfortable if I could just pass a file or files and the CLI grabs itself the file language.

Strongly agree. There was some related work in Unibeautify core a while ago: Unibeautify/unibeautify#152

[stevenzeck]

Unibeautify core has functions to get the language based on several criteria, including file extension. What are you trying to do with it in the CLI exactly?

[lassik]

Avoid having to pass --language foo manually. It would be convenient and I can't think of any harm it would cause.

[stevenzeck]

The reason for passing the language is so users can beautify specific blocks of code. For example, they might want to beautify HTML code in a .php file.

I'm not against retrieving the language from the file extension if the user doesn't specify the language through --language.

[muuvmuuv]

That is what I suggest. Using both, first get the language automatically and if the user set the flag use this language
