# databases/shared-mime-info - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Core database of common types

    Many programs and desktops use the MIME system to represent the types of
    files.  Frequently, it is necessary to work out the correct MIME type for
    a file.  This is generally done by examining the file's name or contents,
    and looking up the correct MIME type in a database.

    For interoperability, it is useful for different programs to use the same
    database so that different programs agree on the type of a file, and new
    rules for determining the type apply to all programs.

    This package contains the core database of common types and the
    update-mime-database command used to extend it.
