SYNOPSIS

   use File::Format::RIFF;
   my ( $list ) = new File::Format::RIFF::List;
   $list->type( 'stuf' );
   $list->addChunk( abcd => 'a bunch of data' );

DESCRIPTION

A "File::Format::RIFF::List" is a list of data in a RIFF file. It has an identifier, a type, and an array of data. The id is always 'LIST'. The type must be a four character code, and the data is an array of other RIFF lists and/or RIFF chunks.

CONSTRUCTOR

$list = new File::Format::RIFF::List( $type, $data );

Creates a new File::Format::RIFF::List object. $type is a four character code that identifies the type of this RIFF list. If $type is not specified, it defaults to ' ' (four spaces). $data must be an array reference containing some number of RIFF lists and/or RIFF chunks. If $data is "undef" or not specified, then the new list object is initialized empty.
