File Kind -> Carbon?

Hi everybody. I'm looking to retrieve a file's kind (i.e. "Microsoft Word 2001 Document"). The problem that I have is that, as far as I can tell, Cocoa's APIs only allow a developer to reach as far as finding out whether a file is a document, directory, volume, and the like, but not to retrieve the specific file kind as noted above. I know that this can be done via Carbon, but is there a Cocoa way to do this?

TIA.
