-- | Constructing and dissecting IFF files
--   
--   The Interchange File Format of Electronic Arts is a container format
--   used for many kinds of data. Common file formats are e.g. IFF-8SVX for
--   8-bit sampled sounds and IFF-ILBM for images in an interleaved way
--   that is close to image representation in Amiga computers. Cf.
--   <a>http://netghost.narod.ru/gff/vendspec/iff/index.htm</a> This
--   library does only handle the IFF container format and does not handle
--   any specific IFF data type. The intention is the same as of Amiga's
--   <tt>iffparse.library</tt>. See
--   <a>http://tbs-software.com/guide/index.php?guide=libraries.doc/lib_33.guide&amp;node=33-11</a>.

-- | ToDo:
--   
--   Lazy read and write.
--   
--   Problem on writing: If the length of data is computed lazily, then you
--   must seek back to the file position where the size is stored. That is
--   for writing of lazily generated data we need a seekable file device.
