-<para>File uses magic numbers to determine a file type. These magic numbers 
-come with File in a plain text file.  File internally compiles this database 
-each time it is run. This is not the normal type of operation for File since 
-compiling a
-plain text file each time is not the fastest way to do it. File offers an
-option "-C" to compile this magic number file. The reason this isn't done
-automatically is that some people like to work on the magic numbers.  On the
-other hand many people didn't get it that they should compile the magic
-numbers, so the author of File added a warning when the plain text magic file
-is used. As we usually won't work on the plain text magic file, we 
-compile this file, because it's faster, fixes that annoying warning and is how
-it was meant to be:</para>
