---------------------------------------------------------------

So sorry for delay!

I still haven't made time to figure out protobufs.  Argh...

I found another implementation of this "dialect" -- 
[iwana|https://github.com/evernote/iwana/blob/master/iwana-extract/src/main/java/com/evernote/iwana/SnappyNoCRCFramedInputStream.java].

I compared its output to the output with commons, and they are identical.

So, I think a unit test with your current output is good enough for now.

Something like:
{code}
        byte[] uncompressed = IOUtils.toByteArray(new FileInputStream(new 
File(dir, "snappyIWATest.raw")));
        assertEquals(6931, uncompressed.length);
        assertEquals(0x23, uncompressed[0]);
        assertEquals(0x08, uncompressed[1]);
        assertEquals(0x01, uncompressed[2]);
{code}

Thank you, again!!!

>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: Tim Allison
>
> On TIKA-1966, one of our users recently shared the newest iOS iWorks files.  
> They've gotten rid of internal .zip and now rely exclusively on .iwa files.  
> commons-compress doesn't currently appear to handle these 
> (snappy-compressed?) files...probably because:
> bq. However, the variant of Snappy that is used does not comply with the spec 
> for that format, omitting the stream identifier and checksum.
> from  http://fileformats.archiveteam.org/wiki/IWA
> Any chance you'd be able to modify the snappy decompression to handle Apple's 
> variant?
