| 1 | GNUfile is the Windows version of the Linux file utility.
|
|---|
| 2 | GNUfile can be used to detect the bitness (32 or 64 bit) of an executable.
|
|---|
| 3 | The GNUfile executable itself is a 32 bit application.

| 6 | GNUfile was downloaded as a zipped binary along with the dependencies zip from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/file.htm
|
|---|
| 7 | The contents of the two zip files were merged into the new GNUfile zip directory that lives in GS2/bin/windows/GNUfile
|

| 8 | Its license is at http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/license.html

|

| 14 | e.g. GNUfile\bin\file.exe wvWare.exe
|
|---|
| 15 |
|

| 16 | Output for 32-bit compiled wvWare mentions "PE32":
|
|---|
| 17 | wvWare.exe; PE32 executable for MS Windows (console) Intel 80386 32-bit
|
|---|
| 18 |
|

| 19 | When run on 64bit executables like 7zip 7z.exe below, GNUfile's output mentions "PE32+":
|
|---|
| 20 |
|
|---|
| 21 | C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe; PE32+ executable for MS Windows (console) Mono/.Net assembly |
