Examine V1.4 is a little program I wrote to help me write scripts and
identify unknown files.  It is quite small, and very versatile (its format
option is compatible with List).

Features:

:-)  Uses, but does not absolutely require, FileID.library.  With it, you can
     easily identify most Amiga filetypes.  Without it, Examine will just
     tell you whether the file is binary or various forms of ASCII text.
     FileID won't be invoked unless a function (or format token) which
     requires it is called, saving time and memory.

:-)  Flexible format command.  Most format tokens are exactly the same as the
     standard List command, so if you know that, you know Examine.  Extra
     tokens allow you display various FileID values or do little ASCII or hex
     dumps.  If desired, you can choose a different format for directories.

:-)  Also capable of performing certain handy script functions.  For
     example, It can return WARN if the filename is that of a directory, or
     if it's an executable.  It can return the FileID type as a return code,
     allowing you to quickly confirm filetypes in your scripts.

:-D  It's pretty good actually!  I use it all the time.  Source in Amiga E is
     included, so you can have a good laugh at it.
