The kind property in Finder's item class contains a localised
description. If you're on 10.4, use System Events or Standard
Additions to check the file's uniform type identifer, e.g.:
tell application "System Events"
get every file of someFolder whose type identifier is
"public.html"
end
For more info on UTIs, see <http://developer.apple.com/macosx/
uniformtypeidentifiers.html> and the follow the links at the
bottom of the page.
If you're not on 10.4, I think you'll need to make up a list of
all possible name extensions and test against that.
I assumes that what I will write now is mainly to Chris Nebel's
attention.
Would it be difficult to add type identifier to the properties
treated by the Finder so it would be easier to deal with this "modern
identifier" without localization oddities?
With such a formula, the localized kind would be available when
localisation is required and the universal type identifier would be
available when needed.

PS. in my late message I typed "Re" in the Object field (while Mail
displays "Rép") and this time it works well. I learnt something ;-)
