Filter JPEG files in MACOSX

Filter jpeg files in MACOSX

How can I filter the files created by the application Preview  and  
saved as JPEG?
According to the Rev documentation I should use either there two  
commands:


   answer file "SELEZIONA" of type "JPEG"

   answer file "SELEZIONA" with filter "JPEGs,*.jpg"

Unfortunately both of them do not work .As far as I know, the first  
one does not work because  the application  Preview from Apple does  
not set the filetype to JPEG even if you choose to save the image as  
JPEG.  (crazy)


The second one does not work because  even if the file has the  
extension .jpg,  in the contextual menu the extension of that file  
disappear.

Why?

To me, this file type thing in MacOSX is a mess.

Bonjour Paolo,

answer file "Select the images you wish to view:" with type "JPEG  
Images|jpg|JPEG"
works well here even with files saved in Preview that, effectively,  
lets the filetype empty as it is visible using File Buddy.
Suppressing file extension and turning off 'Show extensions' in  
Finder prefs still allows to have this kind of file showing up in the  
answer file dialog.

I think it's due to the formulation abobe that adds 'JPEG Images'.
