I think it would be good to make the change in the Mac gui too.
This would help people on the mac who work on multiple platforms,
or try scripts from other people.


I forgot to mention one other extension, ".t", an extension often
used for tests to be processed using do.test().  However, this
is less common, could easily be excluded; people can use "all files"
for this.

Thanks,
Tim
