File tests each argument in an attempt to classify it. There are
three sets of tests, performed in this order: file system tests,
magic number tests, and language tests.

This package also includes the magic number recognition libraries.

This version is the standard "file" command for Linux, *BSD, and other
systems. This is Ian Darwin's file(1) command. It is maintained
by Christos Zoulas.
