I am guessing that Macs now have something like Windows where they suppress the view of the extension. I guess RB's folderitem doesn't do much with extensions.
Well, the FolderItem class does have "Name As String", and a "DisplayName As String" and "ExtensionVisible As Boolean" properties.
The hide extensions option is enabled on a file-by-file basis and is usually set by the user in the "Save As..." dialog box. But the user can also set this flag in the "Get Info" window in the Finder... and you should be able to set this flag with the FolderItem.ExtensionVisible property.
Note that files are *not* required to have an extension on the Macintosh, though for the most part you have to go out of your way to create a file like that.
