Greetings Guilers,

The other day I happened to run the file command on some .go files, and they 
show up as the rather unhelpful "data".  So I added some bits to my /etc/magic 
file:

0   string   GOOF----   Guile Object
>8  string   LE         little endian
>8  string   BE         big endian
>11 byte     0x34       32bit
>11 byte     0x38       64bit
>13 regex    [0-9.]+    v%s


Much nicer.

I'm on a Debian system, and /etc/magic is there for the editing of local 
customizations like this.  Not sure if that's possible on other systems.  Sure 
would be nice if this could be updated at install time.

-Dale
