I have a "save as" grab from an insurance company web site that is
supposedly the link to grab a .pdf of a policy of mine that's a
couple decades or more old.

Looked at in a text editor, it resembles somewhat an .html file, but
has an extension of ".pt", and apparently iceweazal is stymied as to
what the heck to do with it, so it spins forever.

Opening up its prefs/applications and entering .pt in the search gets
me an empty window.

Does anyone have a clue what this is?  Its potentially worth quite a
bit of money to me.

Doah! What do you get if you type
file filename.pt ??
(insert your filename) Ric
gene@coyote:~/Documents$ file ./Aflac-server.pt
./Aflac-server.pt: HTML document, ASCII text, with very long lines, with
CRLF, CR, LF line terminators

Is that enough to choke iceweasal?

Just for giggles, try opening it with gimp or Office? Ric
