Retrieving File's Mime-type
Alright, so I am trying to use perl (or any other shell scripting language, awk/sed/bash for instance), to retrieve the mime-type of a file.
I want to keep it in one file, and most of the modules that are on cpan that check for mime types (Magic), aren't installed on these boxes.
Anyone have a good way of checking for a file's mime type?

Using Lynx, when I try to download a .rar, it confirms I want to download and its got it as an appication/rar file.
However, split archives that end in .r## (.r00, .r01 ...) are not recognized as an appication/rar file and it reads the file like a .txt or .html.
How can I fix this?
Thanks! (2 Replies)

dh_installmime
DH_INSTALLMIME(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLMIME(1)
NAME
dh_installmime - install mime files into package build directories
SYNOPSIS
dh_installmime [debhelperoptions] [-n]
DESCRIPTION
dh_installmime is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing mime files into package build directories.
It also automatically generates the postinst and postrm commands needed to interface with the debian mime-support and shared-mime-info
packages. These commands are inserted into the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb(1).
FILES
debian/package.mime
Installed into usr/lib/mime/packages/package in the package build directory.
debian/package.sharedmimeinfo
Installed into /usr/share/mime/packages/package.xml in the package build directory.
OPTIONS
-n, --noscripts
Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts.
NOTES
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
SEE ALSO
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
