'file' does nothing interesting with the filename, it just opens it and
examines the contents. For example,
file www/cgi-bin/files.py
will examine the Python source file, not run it.
So first in the interpreter, I ran
>>>> f = open("junk.txt", "w")
>>>> f.write(b'\xb6\xe3\xed\xf9\xf3\xf4\xef\xfc\xed\xef\xec\xe1
>>>> \xf3\xf5\xf3\xf4\xde\xec\xe1\xf4\xef\xf2\n')

then at the bash prompt, I ran:
davea@think2:~$ file junk.txt
junk.txt: ISO-8859 text
davea@think2:~$
