I surrender!
It is amazing how many people actually wanted this list.
Note that it is actually now 291 file mappings, which means 291 extensions,
NOT 291 Mac types and creators. .tif and .tiff for example are both TIFF's
and there are many (61 to be exact) extensions I map as BBEdit text files,
because they appear to be text
The mappings are something of a matter of taste. The source is some list i
found somewhere and quickly forgot plus my own choices for things.
The file is at http://web.finan.com/AppleTypes.txt
