Hi,

I have made a header port of libmagic which is used by the file(1) command to identify the type of files. Usage examples are availble, too.

Since it could be of general interest, I'm posting it here. Test it, stick it in LCCR or whatever.

Have fun,
Marc

Hello,

Just a note, I was using magic.dll for Windows a few years ago and I was being forced to use dynamic loading as my code must process thousands of streams/files and in magic_close the dll left an allocated memory block and the only way to remove it was unloading the DLL.

I will add it to the FPC packages.

Michael.
