--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu> ---
You mistakenly had not selected the document to open in Writer (via the os
FilePicker and all files *.*) and are then trying to assign the import filter
to use.

The file picker is provided by the os/DE, the import filters are provided by
LibreOffice.

Of course if you want the file to appear when not first selecting it--change
its file type extension from ".h-c" to simply ".txt".

On selection of the file, applying the 'Text - Choose Encoding (.txt)' filter,
and making the selection from the 'ASCII Filter Options' dialog, the text of
the document is brought into LibreOffice and assigned a style of "Preformatted
Text" on the "Default" page styles.

No selection of text/paragraph is necessary.

Rather, you should modify both styles (Paragraph, Page) to apply them to the
imported text. Save to .ott template--useful if you have multiple instances of
this format to import--and load its styles in advance.
