"""Guess the MIME type of a file.
This module defines one useful function:
guess_type(url) -- guess the MIME type and encoding of a URL.
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

"""Guess the type of a file based on its URL.
Return value is a tuple (type, encoding) where type is None if the
type can't be guessed (no or unknown suffix) or a string of the
form type/subtype, usable for a MIME Content-type header; and
encoding is None for no encoding or the name of the program used
to encode (e.g. compress or gzip). The mappings are table
driven. Encoding suffixes are case sensitive; type suffixes are
first tried case sensitive, then case insensitive.
The suffixes .tgz, .taz and .tz (case sensitive!) are all mapped
to ".tar.gz". (This is table-driven too, using the dictionary
suffixes_map).
