## Summary:

  Mapping of symbols to constants that is stored externally as a
  single binary file and loaded on-demand.  Can be used for huge
  databases to avoid loading everything to memory.  This package
  doesn't use any external programs, making it a suitable dependency
  for smaller libraries.

  Typical usage of the library consists of two separate stages:

      1) Package maintainer/developer creates a map file, which is
         then distributed along with its `*.el' etc. files.

      2) For end-user, Elisp code retrieves values from the
         pre-created map file.

  Creating a map file doesn't require any external tools.  See
  function `extmap-from-alist' for details.  If you use Emacs 25 or
  later and your map is so huge that you don't want to load it fully
  even when creating, see `extmap-from-iterator'.
