Here's how it works: The file command is used to determine the type of a file by examining its contents and comparing them to a database of known file types. The database used by the file command is typically located in the file /usr/share/misc/magic on Linux systems. When you run the file command followed by the name of a file as an argument, the command reads the contents of the file and compares them to the patterns and definitions in the database to determine the type of the file. The file command can detect a wide range of file types, including text files, binary files, archives, images, audio files, and more.
