How can I tell if a file is zipped or not?
SunOS xxxxxx 5.10 Generic_142900-15 sun4v sparc SUNW,T5240
We receive files that are sometimes zipped, but the file may not have the .gz or other extention that would indicated that the file is zipped. Is there a unix "test" command that I could use or something similar?
Thanks in advance

NAME
ecppll - language-linker for ecpp
SYNOPSIS
ecppll [-I dir] [-F] [-o output-filename] ecpp-filename [translated-data]
DESCRIPTION
Ecppll is the language-linker for ecpp. This program combines the data of a ecpp-file with translated phrases from a source-file and gen-
erates a data-file used by tntnet to look up translated data. The translated data file must contain the original phrase and the translated
version separated by tab line by line.
To generate a language file the generated files of all components of a component-library must be zipped. The resulting zip-file must have
the same basename as the component-library and the language-code as the extension. Tntnet tries to find the langage library by first
appending the value of the query parameter LANG to the name of the componentlibrary. If the file is not found, the environment-variable
LANG is used. If that is neither found, the default data from the original component is used.
OPTIONS
-F Fail on warning. If a phrase is not found in the language-data or in language-data is a phrase not used it the ecpp-file, ecppll
warns about it to standard output. If this flag is set, ecppll returns a non-zero return-code.
-I dir Search include-files in directory. This option can be passed multiple times. All specified directories are searched in turn for
include-files.
-o filename
Specify output filename
