Hello,

I am pleased to announce file 4.24. There have been numerous bug fixes
and enhancements:

	Reuben Thomas:
	    - There is no separate mime file; the mime entries are now
	      integrated in the regular magic file as !:mime annotations.
	    - Separation of text and binary magic searches
	    - UTF-8 BOM message clarification
	    - Compilation of magic fragments from a directory
	    - Unit test framework
	Bob Byrnes:
	    - Fix ELF core detection on solaris
	Gavin Atkinson:
	    - zero out utime/utimes structs
	Diego "Flameeyes" Petten:
	    - reduce writable data

As always file is at:

	ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/file/file-4.24.tar.gz

Enjoy,

christos
