--- Comment #6 from Javen O'Neal <on...@apache.org> ---
Starting with 0x31be, the provided file is presumably a Microsoft Write file,
typically found with a .wri extension, though later saved with a .doc extension
and *optionally* saved in an OLE2 container (this file isn't). This format
dates back to the Windows 1.0 days (1985).

Strictly speaking, Write is not part of the Microsoft Office suite.
