I don't think you understand... the '.c#' file extension to which you
refer throughout your mail _does not exist_. The .net standards do not
specify a file extension for c# source files, although ECMA-334 says
this:
'The source code for a C# program is typically stored in one or more text
files with a file extension of .cs'
While some implementors should not require '.cs', nobody uses '.c#', as
that would be very inconvenient.
There is therefore no issue.
You may wish to refer to ECMA-334/335 or some other source of information
on .NET and C#. I do not recommend that you start using a '.c#' file
extension as it might cause problems similar to those you describe.
