In the description below \f(CW$type\fR refers to the \s-1MIME\s0 type as specified in the \f(CW\*(C`Content\-Type\*(C'\fR header of mail or \s-1HTTP\s0 messages. Examples of types are: .PP .Vb 3 \& image/gif \& text/html \& text/plain; charset=iso\-8859\-1 .Ve .PP You could also take a look at the File::MimeInfo distribution, which are accessing tables which are used by many applications on a system, and therefore have succeeded the mail-cap specifications on modern (\s-1UNIX\s0) systems. .SH "METHODS" .IX Header "METHODS" .SS "Constructors" .IX Subsection "Constructors" .IP "Mail::Cap\->\fBnew\fR(\s-1OPTIONS\s0)" 4 .IX Item "Mail::Cap->new(OPTIONS)" Create and initialize a new Mail::Cap object.
