Real software doesn't use file extensions at all.

Really?

  • So your editor that looks at the extension to determine what syntax profile to use isn't "Real software"?
  • Your C++ compiler that uses the file extension to determine whether to compile the file as C or C++ isn't "Real software"?
  • gunzip gunzip: _831513.exp: unknown suffix -- ignored isn't "Real software".
  • ...

What a pointless, valueless, meaningless statement.


With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". I knew I was on the right track :)
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
