My feeling is that the *.txt is actually misleading because people will
think of it as a file full of freeform text (paragraphs) and not a
configuration file.

Does anyone know of a configuration file that uses *.txt? I don't.

Perhaps there is another extension that is good for Win32 but i don't
think *.txt is it.
