RAP file opening

[anjou2]

I need to open a RAP file and would like advice on what to use please.

Is this some sort of music file? It may have been created with Magix Music Studio or something similar, so you may need that program to open it.

Yes, I noticed that but this is a text file from an application.
I was just being a bit careful about downloading dodgy stuff to read it.

Give the file to someone running Linux and have them run 'file <filename>'. It reads and decodes parts of the to determine filetype, regardless of extension. This is one of the biggest things I miss in Windows (there are of course Windows tools that do the same - see here & here - I'm talking native functionality).

Otherwise just try opening it with notepad and/or wordpad. That's completely safe AFAIK.

Edit: just noticed this!
