[HOWTO] - Find files of same type or creator as another file
So, Sherlock's advanced options let you find by, among other things, file type and creator. Great. Just please don't tell me I have to use ResEdit or some similar tool to find that info to get a file's 4 digit type or creator and then enter than into Sherlock.

The Finder's info doesn't seem to show it, and I'm not aware of any way to do it from the command line (please tell me there is--that would be the best!).

So, is there any way I can just tell Sherlock (or some freeware tool) "Find all the files of the same type as this file"?

Thanks,
Jeff
