How does one add a custom type to ack and get it to stick? Per the man page, I tried:

     ack --type-set objj=.j

Doesn't work. I can append that to a query:

     ack CPWindowController --type-set objj=".j"

And it will search .j files for CPWindowController, but then it immediately forgets .j and the objj type.
