Magic Filename update for FrontDoor

        Magic.com is copyright Bill Birrell (44/44/0@Chatnet).

        It automatically looks up the latest version of magic filenames
from the directories given in the alias files as recorded in setup.fd.
In single-user mode it therefore requires the environment variable FD to
be set to the FrontDoor system directory. In multi-user mode, it uses
the local directory to find setup.fd, so it is up to the sysop to see
that it is run only in the correct directory. If it can't find setup.fd
it will say so and stop.

        There are three command line switches and an optional
configuration file. In the absence of a configuration file the program
defaults to searching for the newest file matching the first six
characters of the magic filename shown in the current alias file. The
command line switches are /q which suppresses screen output, /[1-8] to
indicate the process number, and /h which prints out the command line
syntax.

        If used in multi-user mode it appends to FD#N.LOG in the current
directory where #N is the process number. If used in single-user mode,
it creates a file "magics.log" in the system directory given by the FD
environment variable.

        The configuration file can be called anything as the filename is
read from the program command line. Its format is as follows:-

# this is a comment line
% so is this
; and this
# Magic name    Format
nodelist        8.*
metro           4.*
Fidonews        6.lzh
fr              0.???
default         6.*
# The 0 format has the special significance of saying leave this file
# exactly as it is.
