If you register a filetype via a MPxFileTranslator you can specify its name
as the -fileType flag. In my trial with this, however, even though the
filetype shown in the dialog was the registered type, the extension
associated with this type was still "*.*", even though my file translator
offers its own as its ::defaultExtension().
Otherwise, I believe you're limited to the filetypes that Maya defines in
its SharedUI.dll:
Best Guess: *.*
Maya Scene: *.mb;*.ma
mayaBinary: *.mb
mayaAscii: *.ma
Windows Bitmap: *.bmp
Tiff: *.tif
Targa: *.tga
SoftImage: *.pic
SGI: *.sgi
RLA: *.rla
Quantel: *.yuv
JPEG: *.jpg
GIF: *.gif
EPS: *.eps
Cineon: *.cin
Alias PIX: *.als
ag: *.ag
Maya IFF: *.iff
move: *.mov
OBJ: *.obj
mel: *.mel
text: *.txt
plug-in: *.mll;*.so
video: *.avi
audio: *.wav;*.aif;*.aiff
image: *.yuv;*.qtl;*.als;*.pix;*.iff;*.tdi;*.gif;*.jpeg;*.jpg;*.jfif;
*.cin;*.rgb;*.sgi;*.si;*.pic;*.tga;*.tif;*.tiff;*.rla;*.eps;
*.bmp;*.dib;*.avi;*.qt;*.mv;*.bot
Use the names above - not the associated extension - as the -fileType in the
fileBrowserDialog command.
