[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-1520) Provide parsing and detection for Mathematica files

["Luis Filipe Nassif (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1520?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14280766#comment-14280766 ] 

Luis Filipe Nassif commented on TIKA-1520:
------------------------------------------

Does the format have a signature? Does the data is really stored as a kind of plain text? If yes, we must update the mimetype definition to state that it is a sub-class of text/plain and the detection should work.

> Currently Mathematica notebooks that have data in them do not appear to be detected correctly.
> java -jar tika-app-1.7.jar -d lab0.nb           
> text/plain
> An empty file with the .nb extension though is detected correctly. ;)
> touch testmath.nb
> java -jar tika-app-1.7.jar -d testmath.nb            
> application/mathematica
> I'm not too sure how to fix this so just adding it as a wish. Thanks!
