The P6 file extension refers to Perl 6 source code files. P6 files contain source code written in Perl 6, a variant of Perl similar to Perl 5. P6 files should compile with a Perl compiler supporting Perl 6. Standard Perl files use the .PL extension. P6 files can open in text or source code editors. These editors let you view and modify the Perl 6 source code.
The P6 extension relates to Perl script language source code. The Perl 6 language has small syntax and feature differences from Perl 5. P6 file contents should not convert to other formats. The data is exclusive to Perl 6.
Various programs can use the .P6 extension unexpectedly. This includes potentially harmful software. P6 files from unknown sources need caution. The extension may spell incorrectly as pt, pu, or py. Check the extension carefully matches P6.
To open a P6 file requires an application supporting the format. If double-clicking the file does not open it, Windows may not recognize the extension. Then assign an app able to handle P6 files. Without a P6 capable application installed, find and download one. After installing a suitable program, P6 files should open by default. However, not all P6 apps can edit or convert the files. Some will only view contents.
