Mac: Change Default Text Editor [duplicate]

Default editor for files without file name extension in Mac OS X
The default is currently TextEdit. I want to change it to be MacVim.
I know how to set files that end with a certain extension, such as .txt, to always open with MacVim (I do this by selecting a file with the extension .txt, pressing command-i, and selecting Open with: Application, Change All...), but I also want text files without extensions, such as README, to open with MacVim by default.

You can't because it can't determine enough information about the file (other then it lacks an extension) to reliably alter that.
