File command just reads the header of a file , and sometimes it can be
forged , but it's an common way to detect file types , like RAR:

Header Signature is `52 61 72 21' in hex , `Rar!' in ascii.

Generally speaking , there's no good way to check if the file is totally
plain text , but a single character.

Just as Frederic suggested , try bool QChar::isPrint()
