I would doubt it, as this program only appears to do the same as telling the OS to "Always Open With". Changing the default program that opens a given file type surely wouldn't affect QS's ability to filter it in the catalogue (unless you know something specific about how the "Exclude File Type" code is written). > Are those undesired files set to be open with a specific app or are they > of kind document?

Attempting to open the former results in nothing visible happening, attempting to open the latter results in OSX telling me that no default application is specified. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quicksilver" group.
