I like the shortest version of file extensions possible so I say +1 to Chip's suggestion as well.

Hi Moritz, as Chip has pointed out it is not a problem w.r.t. hashbang lines or the like, but an attempt to get at unique filetypes that one can then use to associate icons with filetypes. > I would not use file extensions that are longer than 3 characters - it's > just not handy when working with it. > Thanks, this matches with Chip's thoughts, and as long as no others step forward to favor longer filetypes (with a sensible reason), I would tend to use ".rxj" (BSF4Rexx-scripts) and ".rxjo" (OpenOffice-scripts). > I have not dealt with BSF4Rexx so far, but I guess you have some special > command to invoke it. No, BSF4Rexx scripts are plain Rexx scripts. They require the BSF4Rexx-library which bridges between Rexx and Java. For ooRexx there is additional support in form of the Rexx module "BSF.CLS" which camouflages Java as ooRexx, such that one is able to send ooRexx style messages to Java objects.
