LabVIEW File types

HI there, I'm using LabVIEW for Linux. Sometimes I have many files on the same directory, belonging to different LabVIEW applications, like *.vi's. *.llb's and so on. I know what does this extensions mean, but many of my colleagues not. If this files were common Linux files, we may use the command "file", but LabVIEW for Linux it isn't. Do you know some Unix Command that can help me?.
For now I'm writing a file with some "magic numbers" for this kind of files, but the clock is ticking! :-), Does some body can help me?.

Hi I'm me again. I write an small patch that can be added to the "magic" file, with some "magic numbers" to identify the type of file, using of course the program file(1), just typing,

file lv_application_file

where lv_application_file is any, almost, LV file, *.vi's, *.llb's, *.mnu's.

You may also note interesting the way that follow to do this, I attach the files that I made.
