I'm using the latest beta for 1.7.2. Now that you can switch around tools and attached peripherals, it would lead me to believe there is probably a way to return what type of tool is on it. Is there?
I tried peripheral.getType(side) and it worked and returned "modem" for a modem, but not for the tool.

Any way to detect the type of tool a turtle has?

Not really, short of putting the turtle in front of a block and attempting to dig through it. The turtle knows whether the tool is suitable, even if it doesn't have any functions that'll tell you what that tool is.
