Nick C commented on TIKA-1513:
------------------------------
Did some more testing and simplified the rules enough that it could be made in
to a regex. It's not pretty but works. It checks the signature/version,
month(1-12), day(1-31), header length > 65, record length > 1, and first
field's type (could be stricter)
<magic priority="100">
<match
value="(?s)^[\\x02\\x03\\x30\\x31\\x32\\x43\\x63\\x83\\x8B\\xCB\\xF5\\xE5\\xFB].[\\x01-\\x0C][\\x01-\\x1F].{4}(?:.[^\\x00]|[\\x41-\\xFF].)(?:[^\\x00\\x01].|.[^\\x00]).{31}[A-Z@+]"
