>Release: FreeBSD 2.0.5-RELEASE i386
>Environment:
>Description:
File(1) doesn't recognize HTML files.
/etc/magic probably belongs in /usr/share/misc/magic.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Appended is a /usr/src/usr.bin/file/Magdir/html file with some really
simple heuristics for spotting HTML files, and a diff to the Makefile
to install the magic file in /usr/share/misc (does it really need to
be in /etc? I can't spot any dependencies on this ...)
# *Really* simple check for HTML
0 string \<HTML> HTML text
0 string \<html> HTML text
