So there is no easy way of getting all the applications based on a filename extension?


If you use:
	
	locate '/System/Library/*.jpg'

then you can see there are a number of jpg files more or less guaranteed to be present in the system (best to find one on each major OS release). For example a file URL created from:

	/System/Library/CoreServices/DefaultDesktop.jpg

would enable you to use LSCopyApplicationURLsForURL() and get the list you need.
