Sometimes you need to quickly preview the contents of a file with the C extension. In such a situation, many people decide to find a tool that, according to its creators, can display the contents of the C file and many other types of files (All in One Viewer).
Of course, there are such tools. However, it should be remembered that they may display the data contained in the C file differently than the application dedicated to handling the C file extension.
