> Determine file type.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Give a description of the type of the specified file. Works fine for files with no file extension:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`file {{filename}}`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Look inside a zipped file and determine the file type(s) inside:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`file -z {{foo.zip}}`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Allow file to work with special or device files:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`file -s {{filename}}`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Don't stop at first file type match; keep going until the end of the file:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`file -k {{filename}}`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Determine the mime encoding type of a file:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`file -I {{filename}}`
