Guess the MIME type of a file.
This module defines two useful functions:
guess_type(url) -- guess the MIME type and encoding of a URL.
guess_extension(type) -- guess the extension for a given MIME type.
It also contains the following, for tuning the behavior:
Data:
knownfiles -- list of files to parse
inited -- flag set when init() has been called
suffixes_map -- dictionary mapping suffixes to suffixes
encodings_map -- dictionary mapping suffixes to encodings
types_map -- dictionary mapping suffixes to types
Functions:
init([files]) -- parse a list of files, default knownfiles
read_mime_types(file) -- parse one file, return a dictionary or None
