How do I get GtkSourceView to recognize a mime-type

.ashx is a file extension for an HttpHandler in mono which means it can be
in multiple languages (C#, VB, Boo, Ruby, Python, etc) and I was wondering
if there was an easy way to get gtksourceview to recognize this file
extension and highlight it. Since I'm mainly a C# developer I'm willing to
settle for C# highlighting this is what I did: copied csharp.lang to
ashx.lang and then changed its mime type to application/x-ashx which
gnomevfs-info told me was the type to be defined.  Yet when I open up gedit
with a .ashx file it doesn't recognize the file by default and I have to
view->highlighting mode->ashx

I have 2 directories for mime types /usr/share/mime and
/usr/local/share/mime     not sure if that would be causing this glitch.

Is there anything else I need to do?

I'd also be willing to do the work to get it to allow all CLR lanagues if
this is possible.

Thanks,
John
