libsharedmime Description

libsharedmime is a library for reading freedesktop.org's shared MIME database. libsharedmime is a library for reading freedesktop.org's shared MIME database.Installation:All that should be required to install this is: make make install Which will put 'libsharedmime1.so' into /usr/local/lib and 'mime-types.h' into /usr/local/include.ToDo:Fix the makefile to have proper dependency handling.Write a ./configure script.Write some docs.Finish the other API functions (what do they actually do?).Test some more. "Works for me".What's New in This Release:· Added code to check for a text file if the content lookup fails, if it matches it gets a 'text/plain' type.· Stopped the content lookup being performed on directories.· Fixed a bug in the magic matching code that caused valid matches to fail. This means that some files will now return the correct mime type as opposed to a default "not found" type.
