I think it's in Finder preferences. There's a checkbox to not show extensions. 
Of course, that'll hide all extensions. The fact that it's hidden doesn't mean 
it's not there, however, so if you transfer it to another device, the extension 
might be visible at that point.

  Subject: getting the Mac to stop putting the .txt extension on 
doownloaded.brf files


  The subject pretty mucvh sums it up.

  How do I keep the .txt extension being added to downloaded files?  In  
  particular, I download .brf files from WebBraille, and whenever I do  
  this, even after renaming the files, they still show up as .txt on my  
  BrailleNote, so I have to rename them again.

  Any thoughts?

  Jane
