mimescan

Searches for a file within another file using the MIME database.

Works similarly to the *nix command 'file', but instead of searching only the header, it advances byte by byte looking for the second file type.

This program uses the libmagic library.

Features

Multithreading
Fast and lightweight
Uses the same MIME database that the 'file' command
