------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Sep 11 20:10:14 +0000 2007 ------- I'd like to generalize the original feature request as follows. The "Open ..." dialog should allow the user to suggest the type of the file they wish to open, regardless of the file's suffix. For example: a file's suffix may be "gif", and yet the file is actually a plain text file. Another example: an HTML file should be allowed to be opened in two modes: presentation and source. Additionally, the user should be able to suggest the encoding to be used to interpret the file's content, including issues such as the newline terminator symbol(s), etc. MS-Word's "Open..." dialog accomplishes all that quite well, and is worth emulating. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
