[jira] [Created] (TIKA-2240) MS Write File

Tim Allison created TIKA-2240:
---------------------------------

             Summary: MS Write File
                 Key: TIKA-2240
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2240
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Tim Allison
            Priority: Trivial


We're currently identifying MS Write Files by suffix ".wri" in one place in our mime defs, but we're also using MS Write File's magic {{0x31be0000}} to identify the file as an MSWord (doc) file in a different definition.

In govdocs1, there are a handful of .wri files with suffix .doc.  We're getting an Invalid Header exception for these files.

I think it would be better to move their magic out of our .doc definition to the .wri definition and use the EmptyParser.

Any objections?
