find . -type f -exec file '{}' \;
Runs `file' on every file in or below the current
directory. Notice that the braces are enclosed
in single quote marks to protect them from
interpretation as shell script punctuation.
The semicolon is similarly protected by the use
of a backslash, though single quotes could have
been used in that case also.
From the man page for find.
