FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

new($)

This is a constructor for the Meta::File::MMagic object. Currently it adds the ability to recognize css file types by using the addFileExts method.

is_image($$)

This method will return whether the specified file is an image. It finds the mime type and checks whether it has "image" in it.

TEST($)

This is a testing suite for the Meta::File::MMagic module. This test is should be run by a higher level management system at integration or release time or just as a regular routine to check that all is well.

TODO

-add caching capabilities to this class using Cache::MemoryCache.

-make a "best" method for matching. It is not obvious whether check_filename or check_byfilename is the best method of File::MMagic and so I need a killer combination.
