filetypes does not control which files are shown it controls which filters are shown. There is a drop down list on the dialog that you can select the filter that is applied. You should find there are two in your case: Python files and text files.
If you select the text files filter it will show only text files... hth -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
