Hi David, hi list, you got this mail, because you maintain src/contrib/file/. If you're not responsible, please let me know and I will find someone else to bother with this :-)
I was playing around with file(1) to find a solution for detecting file content correctly. I've detected, that the pattern in src/contrib/file/Magfiles/commands which are useful detecting unknow scripts correctly (lines 44-52), prevents file from detecting eg. perl or scripts correctly. Sample: $ file -b /var/www/data/trevor/flexpage/tools/fpcombinelib a /usr/local/bin/php -Cqe script text executable $ file -b /var/www/data/trevor/flexpage/tools/getPage.pl a /usr/bin/perl script text executable I created a patch which may only a workaround until a script language is added which first letters are bigger than 'various'. Maybe a better solution would be renaming all scripts to 'script.shell', 'script.php', 'script.perl', ... 'script.various' or concatanation order is created. Last one may be the best solution. Please let me know what you think. Sample after patch: $ file -b /var/www/data/trevor/flexpage/tools/getPage.pl perl script text executable $ file -b /var/www/data/trevor/flexpage/tools/fpcombinelib PHP script text executable Regards, Jens
