I am looking for information on naming conventions for FTP files.  I know
that there are standard extensions used to indicate the document's format,
but I'm only aware of a few of the more basic ones (e.g. .txt for ASCII
text, .pdf for Acrobat Adobe, .w61 for WordPerfect 6.1).  Can someone
point me to a more comprehensive list?
