IntelliJ Idea highlighting depending on file structure; NOT file extension

Question

Hello.

I have a little problem: in the project are exists several *.conf files. But they have different file structures: one of them is XML (e.g. Resin conf) and another is java properties file.

Is there any way change highlighting manually, or even better - to change highlighting type automatically ?

Thanks in advance.

I'd name them by their proper types and put them in a /config directory. No need for all of them to have .conf as their type.
