can I change a file etension on a document I made in text edit. I can

I may have changed something, I don't know, but when I try to open a text edit doc I made, it looked different. I may have clicked restore to default. I also see it is a rtf and now all I see is code. Can you change a file extension for a text edit file and if so to what extension? so I can read my list I created

File menu > Save… and give the filename a real name and extension (e.g. foo.txt). Determine where you want to save it and then click Save.
