Using filename extensions to represent filetypes to the OS is lame anyway
IMO. Extension name clashes are inevitable - especially with the archaic
3-char convention. And these filename extensions are listed as if MS
Windows is the only OS out there. Geez. It's not like extensions are
registered like URLs or something; they really aren't much more than a
free-form description.

.R represents REBOL scripts on my machine. Oh wait, I'm preaching to the
choir <turns around and starts over>.

Subject:  [REBOL] Re: Other R extensions


HI Guys,

FYI .... the 4gl I use for work purposes called Progress uses .r as an
extension for its "compiled" code.

You can replace the file types entry in Windoze so that .r run Rebol
instead
:-)

Cheers Phil
