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:

$ 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:

$ strings data.lit | less
