Subject: Getting a files mime-type

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if there is a simple way to get the mime-type of a 
file?
(I've seen the Mime::Type library, but haven't figured out how to use 
it).
I'm trying to check the type before processing a bunch of files on disk 
(and ignoring files that I'm not interested in. Is there a better way 
than using the file extension?

thanks,
Dan
