Wat is een TEXT-bestand?

A TEXT file is a simple text document that contains unformatted ASCII text. It can be opened and edited in any text editor or word processor. TEXT files are more commonly saved as .TXT files.

TEXT files store text that can be viewed and edited in Microsoft Notepad, Apple TextEdit, and other text editors. Unlike .RTF, .DOCX, and .PAGES files, TEXT files cannot include advanced formatting, such as bolding, italicization, font styles, and text alignment.

Because TEXT files cannot include formatting, they typically contain only basic information, such as notes, step-by-step instructions, and program information logs. Software developers may also package TEXT files with games and tools they distribute to contain instructions or other information about the software.

Users who need to create more complicated text documents, such as resumes, reports, letters, or flyers, typically do not save those documents as TEXT files. Instead, they use Microsoft Word or Apple Pages to create and save documents as DOCX or PAGES files.

A .text file is a binary machine code file included in a Windows executable (.EXE) or dynamic link library (.DLL) file. Unlike plain text TEXT files, binary TEXT files contain processor-specific machine instructions that executable files reference when run.

Contents (including a .text file) extracted from an EXE or DLL file

Since binary TEXT files are packaged in EXE or DLL files, you are most likely to encounter them when you extract an EXE or DLL file's contents with an archive utility (e.g., 7-Zip). While not all EXE and DLL files contain TEXT files, most modern EXE files (saved in the Portable Executable format) and DLL files do.

For example, if you extract a portable executable EXE file's contents, you may encounter these files:

  • .text - Stores binary machine code for running the portable executable.
  • .reloc - Stores information for how the portable executable is loaded and run in memory (.RELOC).
  • .rsrc - Stores information about resources used by the portable executable.

OPMERKING: Mac and Linux executables can also include TEXT files. These TEXT files also contain binary machine instructions, saved in platform-specific formats.

Veelvoorkomende .TEXT-bestandsnamen

.text - Binary TEXT files are unnamed; only the .text file extension is present.

Binary TEXT files are not meant to be opened. Instead, Windows executables (EXE files) reference binary TEXT files when run, or programs using DLL files reference them.
