txt
is widely know file format. Should I use the article the
or not when referring to it?
I am familiar with the notion of txt format
, but it could be wrong. As I just asked a question about using articles with brands, like Safari
browser and the answer said I should use article because there are many browsers and Safari
is specific type.
It seems to me if I apply this rule here in file format, I should use the
, but as I said, it does not sound familiar, may be people do not use the
as a a shortcut.
So, is it:
The files are stored in txt format
Or,
The files are stored in the txt format
