file(1) magic for SCO xenix?

I installed the file(1) replacement that was posted recently, and I found
that it wasn't particularly smart about SCO Xenix file types... it had 
only a few magic numbers, etc... and I was not able to figure out from 
its documentation nor from my XENIX docs what to put in to the xenix magic
file to make it smarter.
If anyone can help with this I'd be most appreciative.

While we're at it, does someone have the magic.[45] man page that came 
with it, in a format that works? nroff -(anything) magic.4 produces lots
of concatenated text, no formatting, for me...

Thanks net!
