A some-what ugly approach. A typical way to mark files as to their type (and version) is to have information in the beginning of the file. Usually, this information in the first 10-20 or so bytes. With some work (and a binary editor/viewer), you might be able to figure out the patterns that identify the type of file you are interested in as well as the version.
