I want to have a list of all the images in a directory. To do so I want to have a function that find the mime type of a file. I have found mimetypes.guess_type but it only works by examining the extension. In GNU/Linux the "file" utility do much better by actually looking at the file. Is there an equivalent function in python (as a last resort I can always use the external file utility).
