If you are using the terminal or a console, it doesn't matter what the file is called. Simply pass the filename (and path) to whatever command you need to read the file.

I.e. if I had a sqlite database called beezelbubeats.eyes, I could type sqlite3 beezelbubeats.eyes at the command line and be dropped into a sqlite shell connected to said file.
