Severity: wishlist
I think the libmagic-dev interface, although very flexible, is overly
complicated
for most situations. How about a simpler wrap function like:
char *
magic_simple (char *filename, int flags)
{
char *ret;
magic_t m;
m = magic_open (flags);
magic_load (m, NULL);
ret = magic_file (m, filename);
magic_close (m);
return ret;
}
