    9 libmagic bindings.
     9Bindings to the magic file recognition library.
    1010
    1111Two modules are included, {{(magic)}} and {{(magic libmagic)}}:
    1212
    13 * {{(magic)}} is a high-level wrapper providing a single procedure
    14   called {{identify}}.
    15 * {{(magic libmagic)}} is a one-to-one binding to {{libmagic.h}}, used
    16   exactly like the C library.
     13* {{(magic)}} is a high-level wrapper providing a single procedure called {{identify}}.
     14* {{(magic libmagic)}} is a one-to-one binding to {{libmagic.h}}, used exactly like the C library.

    1816The following documentation applies to the {{(magic)}} module.
    … …  
    2422One procedure is provided, {{identify}}, that tries to do what you mean.
    2523
    26 Whenever libmagic returns an error, an exception of type {{(exn magic)}}
    27 is raised.
     24Whenever libmagic returns an error, an exception of type {{(exn magic)}} is raised.
    2825
    29 Note that the {{magic}} module loads libmagic's magic numbers database
    30 as soon as it's {{require}}d (a.k.a. {{use}}d). If you're not OK with
    31 this, use the low-level module.

    35 {{identify}} returns a textual description of the file indicated by
    36 {{object}}, or the contents of {{(current-input-port)}} if no {{object}}
    37 is specified.
     30{{identify}} returns a textual description of the file indicated by {{object}}, or the contents of {{(current-input-port)}} if no {{object}} is specified.

    39 If {{object}} is given, it may be any of the following object types,
    40 with {{identify}} returning a description of:
     32If {{object}} is given, it may be any of the following object types, with {{identify}} returning a description of:
    4133
    4234* {{blob}}: the contents of the blob.
    4335* {{string}}: the contents of the file indicated by the given filename.
    4436* {{integer}}: the contents of that file descriptor.
    45 * {{input-port}}: the contents of the given port. This port must be
    46   backed by a file descriptor; if not, an error of type {{(exn type)}}
    47   will be raised.
     37* {{input-port}}: the contents of the given port. This port must be backed by a file descriptor; if not, an error of type {{(exn type)}} will be raised.
    4838
    49 If {{flags}} is given, it must be a symbol or list of symbols indicating
    50 the type of description to return. These correspond to the {{MAGIC_*}}
    51 constants in {{libmagic.h}}, and can be any combination of the following
    52 (though not all combinations make sense):
