Changes (by paulp575):

  * keywords:  => file type, file extension

Comment:

 When doing so, I think it would be best to alphabetize by file extension
 rather than name of file, but still provide the description of the file
 type before the file extsion. For example:

 SDTS Raster (*.ddf *.DDF)[[BR]]
 MrSID JPEG2000 (*.jp2 *.j2k  *.JP2  *.J2K)[[BR]]
 GeoTIFF (*,tif, *.TIF)

 And so forth.
