I suppose you are working on a mac? Right :-)

If you write something to a file the resulting file will always have 
TEXT as the -> filetype,
UNLESS you set the filetype BEFORE you are writing that file...

Please remember, ONLY the filetype is TEXT, but the content of the file 
is actually RTF-code!

Read: the file only LOOKS liek a text-file to the finder!
But we developers cannot be fooled this easy ;-)

As long as noone tries to DOUBLECLICK the file in the finder, no need 
to worry :-)
