Häufig kann man einer Extension (Dateinamenserweiterung) kein Programm, bzw. Anwendung zuordnen. Das Gleiche gilt für einige Begriffe in der Datenverarbeitung.
Ich habe einige Listen – © Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Georg Riker – im Netz gefunden und habe sie hier mal geordnet dargestellt (Filegröße = ca. 250 KB).
