- Description:
-
- TypeFind is a utility which can recognise over a hundred and twenty
- types of file which do not have their filetypes set. It has intelligent
- guess routines which should still guess the types of files if the internal
- format has changed slightly, and also keep a certainty score for the file
- being scanned.This means that if TypeFind knows about a certain type of file,
- it should get it first time - and if it doesnt, I want to know about it.
- TypeFind can handle batch operations (ie directories), and provides an
- extension of the normal main window to do this.
