Well, I started looking into how much effort would it be to translate the strings returned by libmagic(3)'s routines into Content-Type. If it is easy enough, I could hack cron to analyze the job's output using magic_buffer(3) and set Content-Type if anything recognizable is detected... The translation is the difficult part :-( Instead of the standardized text/html for example, libmagic returns: HTML document text It is trying to be human-readable, while I need the machine-readable strings. There is stuff on-line that does the translation, but it is in much higher-level languages (like PHP), which think, hash-tables are free :-) Oh, well... -mi
