heuristics have sets of file extensions associated with them and, if the name of the file being opened has an extension 
(after stripping off any compressed-file extension such as ".gz"), the heuristics that have that extension associated 
with them are tried first (in order, if there's more than one), followed by the heuristics that don't have that 
extension associated with them.
