/**
 * <p>
 * File filter for matching files containing a "magic number". A magic number 
 * is a unique series of bytes common to all files of a specific file format.
 * For instance, all Java class files begin with the bytes 
 * <code>0xCAFEBABE</code>. 
 * </p>
 * 
 * <code><pre>
 * File dir = new File(".");
 * MagicNumberFileFilter javaClassFileFilter =
 *     MagicNumberFileFilter(new byte[] {(byte) 0xCA, (byte) 0xFE, 
 *       (byte) 0xBA, (byte) 0xBE}); 
 * String[] javaClassFiles = dir.list(javaClassFileFilter);
 * for (String javaClassFile : javaClassFiles) {
 *     System.out.println(javaClassFile);
 * }
 * </pre></code>
 * 
 * <p>
 * Sometimes, such as in the case of TAR files, the
 * magic number will be offset by a certain number of bytes in the file. In the
 * case of TAR archive files, this offset is 257 bytes.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <code><pre>
 * File dir = new File(".");
 * MagicNumberFileFilter tarFileFilter = 
 *     MagicNumberFileFilter("ustar", 257); 
 * String[] tarFiles = dir.list(tarFileFilter);
 * for (String tarFile : tarFiles) {
 *     System.out.println(tarFile);
 * }
 * </pre></code>
