Not sure if this is a bug, but on v4.01, my document list only shows actual, iSilo-readable document files, when all the checkboxes are checked (including "other"). On 4.05b2, if "other" is checked, it shows ALL files, including other PDB files, MSDict databases, Palm Reader docs, etc.

Can this be changed, so that it behaves the same way as previous versions...?

In version 3.0 to 4.01, the "Other" type only applied to the /Palm/Programs/iSilo folder. In pre-4.05, that limitation was necessary since iSilo added an entry to its database for every single file regardless of whether the user accessed it or not with iSilo, which would otherwise get large unnecessarily. The user could thus place files of any "other" type in the /Palm/Programs/iSilo folder and view it as plain text.

The behavior will not be changing back. This is necessary so that you can view any "other" file anywhere on a card as plain text.
