11 16 0-484 data payload, contents and length vary,
12 mostly depending on the type code
14 all multibyte values are in LE
15 the current code does no conversion, so only works on machines
16 with native LE (or BE if the server and all clients are on that,
17 but that's by accident and will break if conversion code is ever
