-------------------------------------------------------------

In looking at [this|http://www.dbf2002.com/dbf-file-format.html], I wonder if 
we could add 0x00 at 30 and 31?

In govdocs1, files that start with 0x03:
||file suffix||count||
|dbase3|2601|
|gls|60|
|bin|1|

In commoncrawl:
||file suffix||count||
|dbf|   532|
|ndx|   40|
|dct|   33|
|tfm|   12|
|ctg|   11|
|_bf|   2|
|cti|   2|
|stp|   2
|NO_SUFFIX|     2|
|a04|   1|
|a05|   1|
|fw|    1|
|mxp|   1|
|pyc|   1|
|txt|   1|

I'm currently grepping the Common Crawl slice from Julien Nioche for files 
starting with 0x03, and I'm getting a vast majority ".dbf", but there are some 
that end in .dct, .ndx (dbf index?), .tfm, .ctg...  Will report findings 
tomorrow.
