This would allow more signatures to be > re-used from more sources (e.g. the file(1) command). As part of the SCAPE > Project, we have added this functionality to our own Tika branch (e.g. > https://github.com/openplanets/tika/commit/b8de9e77c8b432788e3f73a4dbccca8ea044b503) > and are working to tidy this up to make a clean patch we can submit here. > BTW, are there any patch submission guidelines or coding standards we should > check our work against first? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
