Unix Solaris would be best because that's where all the files are
archived. If I have to move them to a Windows PC to do it then
Windows will do as well.

What operating system? Windows, some flavor of Unix, or other?

I have several hundred files, most from the MS DOS days, without
meaningful file extensions. Most are probably in some old version
of MS Word but I don't know for sure. I'm trying to find a way to
generate a list of the files and their formats. I have tried both
File::Type and File::MMagic on a test directory of known, modern,
files but the results weren't very good.
Anyone have recommendations? I'd prefer it be in perl but it
doesn't have to be.
