Variable Documentation

MimeTypeUnknown

const Mime::MimeTypeUnknown = MimeTypeOctetStream

MIME type for unknown file types

UrlEncodedChars

const Mime::UrlEncodedChars = ...

hash of non-alphanumeric characters that can be used unencoded in URL encoded format

the plus character can also appear unencoded in a URL string, but because many decoders interpret it as a space (which is it in the query part of a URL string), it's not in this list
