I think I'm missing something really simple:

on importPhotos gCurrentFolder
  set the directory to gCurrentFolder
  put the files into temp
  filter temp with "*.jpg,*.gif,*.png"
 put temp
on importPhotos


doesn't work, but


filter temp with "*.jpg"

does work... What am I doing wrong? Can we not filter a container with multiple criteria in a single pass? I couldn't see how to use a wildCardExpression for this and the command doesn't support full regEx, which could do the job. I searched and searched the docs but no answer that applies to filtering a container, just platform specific stuff for answer file. I would also like to filter file lists for "*.html,*.txt,*.shtml,*.xml,*.htm.*indd" in one pass as well.

Of course we can do the following, but it seems like a lot more than should be needed:

on importPhotos gCurrentFolder
  set the directory to gCurrentFolder
  put the files into temp
  put temp into tOnlyJpegs
  put temp into tOnlyGifs
  put temp into tOnlyPngs
  filter tOnlyJpegs with "*.jpg"
  filter tOnlyGifs with "*.gif"
  filter tOnlyPngs with "*.png"
  put tOnlyJpegs & cr & tOnlyGifs & cr& tOnlyPngs into _allPix
  put _allPix
on importPhotos
