overview

This buffer-type additionally supports 3 subtypes (“JSON”, “XML” and “YAML”) but it doesn’t imply any magic it’s just a means to achieve some application-dispatch (or such)

remarks

• You may write to the buffer in other ways (such as memcpy() but the size in tpalloc() or tprealloc() will then be relevant
