The case against extensions in this context is that the user shouldn't
have to change if the shell script is rewritten in a different language.
Having to change from foobar.sh to foobar.pl just because of this change
isn't user friendly. And what if you re-wrote it in C?

But although you can make a case, it isn't an open and shut one, but a
matter of preference I guess. And I certainly think .conf on a file is
useful. And maybe even .d

Steve:

As I have stated earlier, my take is that extensions should be a clue as to what the file has but not something that should be "fixed" as in MS

Thanks,
Paul
