(description
"This module uses ctypes to access the libmagic file type
identification library. It makes use of the local magic database and
supports both textual and MIME-type output. Note that this module and
the python-file module both provide a \"magic.py\" file; these two
modules, which are different and were developed separately, both serve
the same purpose: to provide Python bindings for libmagic.")
