Revision history for Perl extension File::MimeInfo.

0.8   Wed Oct 22 2003
      Seems that the new version of the mime-info spec takes longer then
      I expected, so I decided to release last weeks bug fixes.

      Sat Oct 18 2003
      - Fine tuned the method interface for describe()
      - Made mimetype -d -l .. default to english for missing translations
      - updated URL's for freedesktop

      Thu Oct 16 2003
      - Fixed small bug in Magic.pm causing a lot of warnings on 
      initialisation when using 'perl -w', reported by Steve Barton

0.7   Fri Oct 03 2003
      - Added File::MimeInfo::Rox
      - ++'ing  version number to keep CPAN satisfied

0.6   Thu Sep 04 2003
      - Emergency release because of a bug in the magic test file

0.5   Wed Sep 03 2003
      - added tests for magic typing
      - fixed design mistake in the basedir file search
      all xdg data dirs are now used, not only the first one found
      - put basedir code in a separate package called File::BaseDir

      Mon Sep 01 2003
      - disabled utf8 binmode layer for perl versions prior to 5.8.0

0.4   Wed Aug 27 2003
      - Added the --dir switch.

      Mon Aug 25 2003
      - Added File::MimeInfo::Magic that inherits from File::MimeInfo but
      also does use the freedesktop magic file
      - Shifted some code around in File::MimeInfo to make inheriting easier
      - Made the mimetype script work with Magic by default
      - Added the --debug switch to trace why a certain file is typed the
      way it is
      - Updated and reviewed the documentation

0.3   Sun Aug 24 2003
      - Moved file test operator stuff to a subroutine called inodetype()
      - Actually implemented the --file-compat switch
      - Added the -L and -i commandline switches for file(1) compatibility
      - Fixed a few bugs with relative file names

      Sat Aug 23 2003
      - Changed the script 'mimeinfo' back to 'mimetype' because
      rox has a '--mime-type' switch doing the same thing as this script.
      - Added the describe() method for getting human readable descriptions
      - Implemented the commandline switches --desc and --output-format

      Mon Aug 04 2003
      - Changed the script 'mimetype' to 'mimeinfo'
      - added some commandline options to make this script a little
      file(1) compat
      - added some file test operators for determining types from the
      inode/* class.

      Sun Jul 27 2003
      - use utf8 binmode for filehandles

0.2   Sat Jul 12 2003
      - bug fix for OO interface, forget to test the constructor :S
      - added specified default behaviour

0.1   Fri Jul 11 2003
      - original version; created by h2xs 1.22 with options
          -AX File::MMagic::Freedesktop
      - implemented finding file type by glob folowing the
      shared-mime-info-spec version 0.11
      - decided to rename it File::MimeInfo because it is less cryptic
