Package: file Version: 3.41 Revision: 1 Description: Determine file type (magic) License: Restrictive/Distributable DescDetail: << Identifies a file's type based on the contents then provides a description or a mime type. File tests each argument in an attempt to classify it. There are three sets of tests, performed in this order: filesystem tests, magic number tests, and language tests. The first test that succeeds causes the file type to be printed. Released Feb 27, 2003 The file command was altered in 2000 to output mime type strings and use an alternative magic file and internal logic. (Apple's file command is old: version 3.22 with Mac OS X 10.2 / Darwin 6.0). << DescUsage: << The '-i' option causes the file command to output mime type strings rather than the more traditional human readable ones. Thus it may say "text/plain; charset=us-ascii" rather than "ascii text". << DocFiles: LEGAL.NOTICE MAINT README UpdateConfigGuess: true ConfigureParams: << --datadir='${prefix}/share/%n' --mandir='${prefix}/share/man' << Source: mirror:custom:%n-%v.tar.gz CustomMirror: << primary: ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/file/ nam-us: ftp://ftp.gw.com/mirrors/pub/unix/file/ eur-de: http://www.netsw.org/system/tools/fileutils/find/ eur-de: ftp://ftp.netsw.org/system/tools/fileutils/find/ eur-fi: http://www.funet.fi/pub/unix/tools/file/ eur-de: ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/unix/tools/file/ eur-de: http://www.go.dlr.de/fresh/unix/src/misc/ eur-de: http://www.uni-koeln.de/ftp/util/ << Source-MD5: 1d9ac92fa1da3043a67c9445bb140824 Maintainer: Carsten Klapp HomePage: ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/file/ SetCFLAGS: -prebind
