    You can go here to see what kind of file it is and click on the extension to see what opens it:

    Regardless of the file extension, if it is a recognizable format, the 'file' command will probably recognize it. If it is data.lit, just type:
    Code:
    $ file data.lit
    If that doesn't work, you may want to peek inside with the 'strings' command, which outputs ASCII character sequences to stdout. Type:
    Code:
    $ strings data.lit | less
