43	Lucide selection of internal plug-ins	StuUpdike@…	Eugene Romanenko	"I have noted that Lucide cannot select the correct internal plug-in (gives error message) when my browser hands it a file without the expected extension.  For example, one of my employer's web sites hands off a pdf file with the name showdocument.cgi.  I have my browser set to use Lucide as a helper application when either pdf or cgi is the extension.  This is the same setup which I used with Acrobat 3.0.  Apparently Lucide relies solely upon the extension for plug-in selection.  However,if Lucide were to look inside the file when the extension is missing, incorrect, or not understood, it would find that PDF files all begin with something like ""%PDF-1.4"" and all DjVU files begin with something like ""AT&TFORM"".  These phrases inside the file could then be used to select the proper plug-in.

Thank you,
