Can you reproduce this when launching Carbon Emacs without
customisation? In GNU Emacs 23.0.50, 23.0.60, 22.1.50, and Carbon
Emacs from December edition I cannot find failures with TeX, LOG,
Perl, AppleScript, and other file types with Mac line endings, i.e.
CR or ^M. It fails for me with PFB font files – because some of them
start with (legal) binary garbage before the characteristic
%!PS-Adobe-
Interestingly the file programme does not fail to recognise both
variants of PostScript font programmes ...

What’s the difference between OS X and Vista?
Microsoft employees are excited about OS X…
