__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
fileutil::magic::filetype - Procedures implementing file-type recognition
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.4
package require fileutil::magic::filetype ?1.0.2?
::fileutil::magic::filetype filename
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This package provides a command for the recognition of file types in pure Tcl.
The core part of the recognizer was generated from a "magic(5)" file containing the checks to perform to recognize files, and associated
file-types.
Beware! This recognizer is large, about 276 Kilobyte of generated Tcl code.
::fileutil::magic::filetype filename
This command is similar to the command fileutil::fileType.
The output of the command for the specified file is a string describing the type of the file.
This list will be empty if the type of the file is not recognized.
REFERENCES
[1] File(1) sources [ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/file/] This site contains the current sources for the file command, including the magic
definitions used by it. The latter were used by us to generate this recognizer.
