Update. I tried the `file -u` example you gave above and the `-u` flag doesn't exist in my version of `file`. I also find it a bit hilarious that the example lists `ed` as the editor of choice.

Then it, given a file, prints typical actions/commands/tasks to stdout and then subsequent CLI tools can be used to process that output. Pretty much that, yes. > I also find it a bit hilarious that the example lists `ed` as the editor of choice. I don't think unix had TECO as a standard utility, so I went with what was available.
