Hello, I was looking over the NUT spec, and I just wanted to check about something. Does a NUT file have a "magic". (A special code at the beginning that marks it as being a NUT file?)
From the spec, I get the impression it doesn't, but that it starts off with a "version"?

Hello, Never mind. Figured out the "magic" is: "nut/multimedia container\0" You gotta start reading the spec with "file:". (Perhaps it would be useful to others reading the spec if that were put near the beginning of the document... to start with "file:".)

NUT files start with the string "nut/multimedia container" followed by a null character. Oded, is this question proof enough that your "spec" is hard to read? -- Måns Rullgård mru@inprovide.com

ive moved file up, is it more readable now?

i dont doubt that it is, but is this also proof enough that being very specific about what is unreadable is essential to being able to correct it?
