While the file extension can be lying maliciously or can be just plain incorrect in 1% cases, its informative for the user in the other 99% cases
- Thorrez 6y agoI agree with you. But pmontra seems to operate differently than that, and have files with mismatching extensions. In that case the extensions tell you something on Windows but not on Linux.
- pmontra 6y agoI don't mismatch extensions because I don't want to play tricks to me in the future :-) Sometimes I don't add extensions, usually on plain text files.
