The easy way to avoid notepad mangling your extensions (at least in XP) is to simply go into windows
explorer, then go Tools->Options->Uncheck "Hide Extensions for Known Types".
Notepad picks up on this and stops being stupid. It's a good idea to uncheck this anyway since
it makes it harder to be tricked by viruses (yes I know it's stupid, but I know of many people
who have infected their system because of the old .jpg.jpg.gif.exe trick).
