Hey, now that's really cool, about the terminal!
Now you got me wanting to read the man page for "file".
Sounds really useful.

Subject: Re: .KWT file Type?
I have no direct knowledge of this file type either, but sometimes multiple
vendors use the same file extension. If you are at all comfortable with the
terminal do the following:
1. Copy the file in the finder.
2. open terminal.
3. type the word file and a space and then paste what you copied in the
previous step.
At this point one of two things will happen:
1. Your Macintosh might say you need the terminal programming tools or some
close equivalent and ask you to download them.
2. it will just give you a summary of the file based on the first few lines.
The file command is used on all unix type commands it looks at the file
extension and the first few lines of the file and compares them with a "magic"
file to guess what type of file it is.
For example files that start with #!/usr/local/bin/perl are perl script files.
Best wishes,
Jonathan Cohn

Thanks John. I just got a bit more information from my husband. Turns out
he created the file on his Victor Reader Stream so would this have caused the
problem in copying it to the Mac? Could it be that perhaps the format is
somehow not a true .txt format? Virc mentioned in the link you sent isn’t
anything he has on the Windows computer so we aren’t sure where this came from.

Hi,
Does any one know what a .KWT file type is on the Mac? My husband had
copied a number of .DOC & .TXT files onto the Mac and when he looked in the
document folder it was listing what was a .txt on Windows as a .KWT file
extension.
Thanks.
