Right click --> Open With (about half way down) --> Choose Program. Then choose a new program to associate with the files.

It still "has" .odf at the end, you probably just don't have your file extension display turned on.

If you're running Windows, Control Panel -> Folder Options -> View(?)

The BEST program is either Notepad++ or Scintilla. Both are free and have advantages over the other. I use Scintilla always when editing LUA files as it color codes things.

if you need to find them

I agree with Teancum on the Scintilla for editing luas, it has the colors but also the added benifit of easily finding out if you are missing a bracket or quote because it will highlight the error (when looking at the file in lua mode)
