[SLUG] File format...
I have some old files, that are either encrypted or compressed or both... But I can't remember what command I used to create them (it was more than five years ago). file just says they're data; but all have the first eight bytes as: 0x37 0xe4 0x53 0x96 0xc9 0xdb 0xd6 0x07 after that they differ. Does anyone out there recognise this `magic number' ?

Interesting and thankyou. Looks like what I have is a directory tree from a zisofs image. Each file in the tree has that magic number (not the whole image) -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
