This library implements a simple encoder/decoder for the MsgPack binary format (see http://msgpack.org/) All opcodes of the specification are supported.
Unlike cl-messagepack, this library does not use the Ext family of opcodes. Also, this library is on a slightly lower level compared to cl-messagepack. The advantage is, that this library refuses to guess the type of objects being encoded, and also allows the application to choose a suitable representation for the values read on a case-by-case basis.
