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. BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK This document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems. Please report such in the category fileutil :: magic of the Tcllib SF Trackers [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=12883]. Please also report any ideas for enhancements you may have for either package and/or documentation. SEE ALSO
