A Guide to File Extensions You will find attached a list of the extensions you might find on your pc, floppy or the internet. The list includes the extension, description, whether it's text, and the likely programs to use to view the contents. Because I included the internet there are unix, mac, … files included - where possible I've include PC programs which will read them. Some of the programs will only read or write or only accept certain variants of the file so even though a program is listed it doesn't mean it will read your particular version of the file. I have done my best to keep this accurate but this is supplied on a all care but no responsibility basis.
