SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.4
package require fileutil::magic::mimetype ?1.0.2?
::fileutil::magic::mimetype filename
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This package provides a command for the recognition of file types in
pure Tcl. The output is standardized to mime-types.
The core part of the recognizer was generated from a "magic(5)" file
containing the checks to perform to recognize files, and associated
mime-types.
::fileutil::magic::mimetype filename
This command is similar to the command fileutil::fileType.
The output of the command for the specified file is not a list
of attributes describing the type of the file, but a list of
standard mime-types the file may have.
This list will be empty if the type of the file is not recog-
nized.
