This description is detailed +enough to read SPV files, but it is probably not sufficient to +write them. + +An SPV file is a Zip archive that can be read with @command{zipinfo} +and @command{unzip} and similar programs. The final member in the Zip +archive is a file named @file{META-INF/MANIFEST.MF}. This structure +makes SPV files resemble Java ``JAR'' files, but whereas a JAR +manifest contains a sequence of colon-delimited key/value pairs, an +SPV manifest contains the string @samp{allowPivoting=true}, without a +new-line. -- 2.30.2
