I used to have a doc file but can't find it and no such file seems to exist
on ground. In the missing doc file it says that Shrinkit goes by the file type
and by whether the file name ends in a recognizable suffix when determining
if a file is an archive. It'd be prohibitively slow to open every file and
check for the ID bytes in a directory with a few hundred files in it.

Show all files shows every file in a directory, while show archives only
shows files recognized using those two methods.
