Answer / narendra simha talluri
Above answer #3 is an example for file command
$file /bin /bin/ed /usr/src/cmd/ed.c /usr/man/man1/ed.1
/bin : directory
/bin/ed : pure executable
/usr/src/cmd/ed.c : c program text
/usr/man/man1/ed.1 : roff, nroff, or eqn input text
so these are the four fairly typical files( what i explained earlier )

Answer / narendra simha talluri
There are fairly 4 typical files, all related to editor:
1. the directory in which it recides(\bin)
2.the "binany" or runnable program itself(/bin/ed)
3.the "source" or C statement that define the program(/usr/src/cmd/ed.c) and
4.the manual page( /usr/man/man1/ed.1)
