Sure, I read it. Can you see an API giving all known file types? Can you see a mention of human readable descriptions? I can't, but it wouldn't be the first time I have selective blindness.


I don't know the answer to the former, but the human readable description would be returned by:

	UTTypeCopyDescription()

What is the problem that you're really trying to solve here? It might be that there is a better way of going about what you're trying to do.
