Many apps have a pull down menu so you can specify the type of files you want to see in the Open Dialog, so how would you do this in Rb?

However, making up a dummy type and using that is NOT the answer, as it will render your app incapable of opening up files which have the right extension but also have a proper Mac type. (Your app could open an app with a type of XXXX, *or* with no type and one of your defined extensions, but not an app with the right extension and a type of TEXT.)
