You can do a quick 'file' command on the filename.dat file and it can tell you what type of file it is. Here are a couple of examples off a system I have.
# file file*
file.cfg: commands text
file.lic: c program text File contains 8 bit characters.
# file ping
ping: executable (RISC System/6000) or object module

Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping(3pm)
NAME
Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping - "ping" various services when nodes are written
SYNOPSIS
use Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping;
my $ping = Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping->new(
node_to_url => 'http://mywiki/$node',
services => {
"geourl" => 'http://geourl.org/ping?p=$url'
},
agent => "My Wiki ping agent",
);
$wiki->register_pugin( plugin => $ping );
DESCRIPTION
A plug-in for Wiki::Toolkit sites, which will "ping" various external services when a node is written. A list of the services to ping, and
where in their URLs to add the URL of the node, are supplied when the plugin is created.
You need to tell it how to turn a node into a URL (node_to_url), and what services to ping (services). You can optionally pass a custom
user-agent string
