I second that, I've seen very strange combinations of compression-algorithm versus file-extension from the simple and correct gzip--tar.gz(tgz) to the newest program 'xz', in any of the extensions tar.gz, tar.bz2, tar.bz, tbz and so on (would have been xz--tar.xz(txz) and is done by option 'J' (uppercase) instead of 'j' or 'z' or more ... Asking 'file' will avoid all the hustle with wrong names versus compression-progs.
