That is currently partially implemented. See:

However, that was not my main point in posting this message...

I would handle this (contacting Debian and upstream maintainers), but
first I would like the magic number definition to be validated.
To learn TeXmacs to the file(1) command, just add the following to
your /etc/magic file.
# TeXmacs
0 string <TeXmacs| TeXmacs document text
Similarly, the mime magic (as in /usr/share/misc magic.mime) is:
# TeXmacs
0 string <TeXmacs| text/texmacs
I tried to design smarter magic for file, in order to allow for
extraction of the version number as well. But I was unable to find
good way to prevent the trailing ">" at the end of the first line of
being globbed along, since file(1) currently lacks regexp support.
