Differentiate between MS Word and Excel files in Unix
Hi,
I want to differentiate between a MS Word and Excel file in Unix (not by extension). The condition which we are currently checking for is the pattern "\320\317\021\340" within first 40 bytes of the file. However this format is same in all MS Office files. Can somebody tell me any special characters which we can check which will differentiate between MS Word and MS Excel file. Regards, Rajan |
