If it's passed as a "string", a pointer to a block of bytes with a definite 
length, then it will process it the same way as any other block of bytes, 
perhaps not usefully.

It would need to verify that the incoming "string" data was of the right 
kind. Possibly the first few bytes would be some kind of selector. The data 
is in bytes just the same as a file or stdin stream, so its meaning and 
format is up to the user.
