file type
     
         The kind of data stored in a file.  Most modern
        {operating systems} use the {filename extension} to determine
        the file type though some store this information elsewhere in
        the {file system}.  The file type is used to choose an
        appropriate icon to represent the file in a {GUI} and the
        correct {application} with which to view, edit, run, or print
        the file.
     
        Different operating systems support different sets of file
        types though most agree on a large common set and allow
        arbitrary new types to be defined.
     
        See also {MIME}.
