In the 2024-12-05 meeting it was decided that there is no need to mention
assembler explicitly as can be covered by "other programming languages".
However, we ran out of time to update the bug, so these are the changes to
be considered on the next call... 

On page 2933 line 97898 section file (STDOUT), delete:<blockquote>| FORTRAN
source | fortran program text | 3,5,6 |</blockquote>
On page 2936 line 98028 section file (RATIONALE), change:<blockquote>binary
data, C source, FORTRAN source, assembler source,
...</blockquote>to:<blockquote>binary data, source for C and other
programming languages, ...</blockquote>
On page 2936 line 98032 section file (RATIONALE), after:<blockquote>Only
those types that are reasonably well specified in POSIX or are directly
related to POSIX utilities are listed in the table.</blockquote>add a
sentence:<blockquote>Versions of this standard earlier than Issue 8
included a FORTRAN development option, and so the <i>file</i> utility was
required to attempt to identify FORTRAN source. This is no longer
required.</blockquote>
On page 2937 line 98057 section file (RATIONALE), change:<blockquote>shell
scripts, C, FORTRAN, and other computer language source files, and
...</blockquote>to:<blockquote>shell scripts, source for C and other
programming languages, and ...</blockquote>
