Various protocols (e.g. the [sound effects](./soundEffects.md) protocols) rely on the
|
|
|
|
|
definition of a [MIME](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIME) `Value`, compatible with the
|
|
|
|
|
[suggested Preserves
|
|
|
|
|
convention](https://preserves.dev/conventions.html#mime-type-tagged-binary-data) for MIME
|
|
|
|
|
values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `type` is a symbol describing the MIME type, for example `application/octet-stream` or
|
|
|
|
|
`text/plain`. The `data` is the associated binary data, expected to be in the correct format
|
|
|
|
|
for the given `type`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
Value = <mime @type symbol @data bytes> .
|
|
|
|
|
```
