The “-program” option formats the output of the command, in order to analyze the result in a program.

The information displayed are:

the file type
the content type (text or binary)
the Unix executable type (executable(0) or not (1))

The "-program" option displays information in a specific output mode. For more details, see the article explaining this option.
