| 1 | This package contains a base64 encoder/decoder and a quoted-printable
|
|---|
| 2 | encoder/decoder. These encoding methods are specified in RFC 2045 -
|
|---|
| 3 | MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions).
|
|---|
| 4 |
|
|---|
| 5 | The base64 encoding is designed to represent arbitrary sequences of
|
|---|
| 6 | octets in a form that need not be humanly readable. A 65-character
|
|---|
| 7 | subset ([A-Za-z0-9+/=]) of US-ASCII is used, enabling 6 bits to be
|
|---|
| 8 | represented per printable character.
|
|---|
| 9 |
|
|---|
| 10 | The quoted-printable encoding is intended to represent data that
|
|---|
| 11 | largely consists of bytes that correspond to printable characters in
|
|---|
| 12 | the ASCII character set. Each non-printable character is represented by
|
|---|
| 13 | a triplet consisting of the character "=" followed by two hexadecimal
|
|---|
| 14 | digits.
