    Hi,

    Fun thing to share: thanks to mgorny, file(1) (sys-apps/file) now
    supports Gentoo ebuilds, eclasses, and binpkgs.

    ```
    $ file sys-apps/file/file-9999.ebuild
    sys-apps/file/file-9999.ebuild: Gentoo ebuild, EAPI 8, ASCII text

    $ file sys-apps/file/Manifest
    sys-apps/file/Manifest: Gentoo Manifest (GLEP 74)

    $ file eclass/autotools.eclass
    eclass/autotools.eclass: Gentoo eclass autotools.eclass, Unicode text,
    UTF-8 text

    $ file /var/cache/binpkgs/app-shells//zsh-5.9-r1.gpkg.tar /var/cache/binpkgs/app-shells//zsh-5.9-r1.gpkg.tar: Gentoo GLEP 78
    (GPKG) binary package for "zsh-5.9-r1" using zstd compression
    ```

    Thought this was a nice fun thing to share.

    Best,
    sam

    Unfortunately it doesn't support transparent lzip decompression, so it
    still does a disservice to our users.
