 * Extensions are of the type ".foo", which is typically found on Windows and

 * image files:
 * 
 * JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser(); EasyFileFilter filter = new
 * EasyFileFilter( new String{"gif", "jpg"}, "JPEG & GIF Images")
 * chooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter); chooser.showOpenDialog(this);
