270There is no way to distinguish CBOR from other formats
271programmatically. To make it easier to distinguish CBOR from other
272formats, the CBOR specification has a special "magic string" that can be
273prepended to any CBOR string without changing it's meaning.
274
275This string is available as C<$CBOR::XS::MAGIC>. This module does not
276prepend this string tot he CBOR data it generates, but it will ignroe it
277if present, so users can prepend this string as a "file type" indicator as
278required.
