NAME
       mime.types - mime type description file for cups

DESCRIPTION
       The mime.types file defines the recognized file types.

       Additional file types can be added to mime.types or in additional files
       in the configuration directory /etc/cups with the extension ".types".

       Each line in the mime.types file is a comment,  blank,  or  rule	 line.
       Comment	lines  start  with  the # character. Rule lines start with the
       MIME type name and are optionally followed by a series of file recogni‐
       tion rules that are used to automatically identify print and web files:

	   super/type rule [ ... ruleN]
       The rules may be grouped using parenthesis, joined using "+" for a log‐
       ical AND and "," or whitespace for a logical OR, and negated using "!".

RULES
       Rules take two forms - a filename extension  by	itself	and  functions
       with test values inside parenthesis. The following functions are avail‐
       able:

       match("pattern")
	    Pattern match on filename

       ascii(offset,length)
	    True if bytes are valid printable ASCII (CR, NL, TAB, BS, 32-126)

       printable(offset,length)
	    True if bytes are printable 8-bit chars (CR, NL, TAB, BS,  32-126,
	    128-254)

       string(offset,"string")
	    True if bytes are identical to string

       char(offset,value)
	    True if byte is identical

       short(offset,value)
	    True if 16-bit integer is identical

       int(offset,value)
	    True if 32-bit integer is identical

       locale("string")
	    True if current locale matches string

       contains(offset,range,"string")
	    True if the range contains the string

STRING CONSTANTS
       String  constants  can be specified inside quotes ("") for strings con‐
       taining whitespace and angle brackets (<>) for hexadecimal strings.
