What are the magic bytes for .ilbm files?
The magic bytes for ILBM files are 46 4F 52 4D 49 4C 42 4D at byte offset 0. These bytes uniquely identify the file format regardless of the file extension.
How do I validate a .ilbm file?
To validate a .ilbm file, read the first bytes of the file and compare them against the known magic bytes (46 4F 52 4D 49 4C 42 4D) at offset 0. This is more reliable than checking the file extension alone, as extensions can be renamed.
What is the MIME type for .ilbm files?
There is no officially registered MIME type for .ilbm files. Systems typically use application/octet-stream as a generic fallback when handling this format.
