In choose file, I'd like to specify a wide range of types. If I say

work. If I
say {"TEXT", "ttro"} it does work. From this I conclude that if you
try to
mix UTIs and four-letter file types you get your hand slapped. Is
this a
bug?
According to the release notes for AppleScript 1.10: "The of type
parameter to the choose file command now accepts either a list of
file types or a list of type identifiers. [3226364]"
I interpret that as one list or another, rather than a list of mixed
types. However, on the basis that a bug can be filed as a feature
request... :-)
