;; Provides configuration of MIME media types from directly from Lisp
;; and via the usual mailcap mechanism (RFC 1524).  Deals with
;; mime.types similarly.

  "The mailcap structure is an assoc list of assoc lists.
1st assoc list is keyed on the major content-type
2nd assoc list is keyed on the minor content-type (which can be a regexp)

Which looks like:
-----------------
 ((\"application\"
   (\"postscript\" . <info>))
  (\"text\"
   (\"plain\" . <info>)))

Where <info> is another assoc list of the various information
related to the mailcap RFC 1524.  This is keyed on the lowercase
attribute name (viewer, test, etc).  This looks like:
 ((viewer . VIEWERINFO)
  (test   . TESTINFO)
  (xxxx   . \"STRING\")
  FLAG)

Where VIEWERINFO specifies how the content-type is viewed.  Can be
a string, in which case it is run through a shell, with
appropriate parameters, or a symbol, in which case the symbol is
`funcall'ed, with the buffer as an argument.

TESTINFO is a test for the viewer's applicability, or nil.  If nil, it
means the viewer is always valid.  If it is a Lisp function, it is
called with a list of items from any extra fields from the
Content-Type header as argument to return a boolean value for the
validity.  Otherwise, if it is a non-function Lisp symbol or list
whose car is a symbol, it is `eval'led to yield the validity.  If it
is a string or list of strings, it represents a shell command to run
to return a true or false shell value for the validity.")
