-The (rather over-used) '''.arc''' file extension is sometimes used, even though the format is not compatible with the various other formats for various other platforms that have also used this extension. On RISC OS systems, files in this format typically have a filetype of 3FB ("ArcFSArc"). Prior to the official filetype allocation sometime around 1993, filetype DDC ("Archive") was used (although DDC was also used for other file formats such as [[ZIP]]).
