Tried with just the file backend enabled, it's "less" rich than the gtk/libmagic combination but works for pdf/jpg/txt/mp3. No match for tgz, proposes fuse-archivemount for .tar.gz, proposes text editor for gpx/gsb... for the latter, the correct mimetype was found and the best handler was proposed. I guess that's what you get for using file from base which is ... basic. (try :f on a file to see the available handlers for the detected mimetype) Landry
