I don't promote name-dropping; and <fileTYPES> are often detectable from their initial bytes [? magic numbers?]. But your statement implies that job.sh SHOULD be handled the same as jobDOG is 'not good'. That loses a complete dimension. An extreme case is my ChineseButtonAudioPlayer: it doesn't even distinguish between directory-nodes. Apparently it just examines all the files [including <dir-pointers>] and if it finds one of the File-types-that-it-plays, it plays that file. I know for a fact that `mc` pays special attention to <file extentions>.
