Added files:
sysutils/filetype Makefile distinfo pkg-descr
sysutils/filetype/files patch-Makefile
Log:
Actually, we're not trying to reinvent the wheel here,
rather adapt it to suit a slightly different purpose.
Below are a few main points and reasons as to why we've created filetype:
* file does not work so well for loosely defined filetypes ( ie, vCards )
* file uses a text-based type database which can impose unwanted delays
in frequently invoked processes
* file does not have a heirachial type tree (ie, executable->MSDOS->EXE )
* file is not designed to be incorporated at a source level into existing
projects
* Simpler and broader type detection engine ( 'file' is very good at
pulling out every detail about a file, ie, the resolution of an image,
however we do not wish to seek out such fine details )
