The banana protocol is a stream of data composed of elements. Each element has the following general structure - first, the length of element encoded in base-128, least signficant bit first. For example length 4674 will be sent as <code>0x42 0x24</code>. For certain element types the length will be omitted (e.g. float) or have a different meaning (it is the actual value of integer elements).
