Base 64 Encoding and Decoding

Base64 is used to encode binary data into an ASCII string; this allows binary data to be transmitted using media designed to transmit text data only. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64 and the RFC 2045 standard for more information.

Routines

include base64.e 
namespace base64 
public function encode(sequence in, integer wrap_column = 0)

Parameters:

1. in -- must be a simple sequence
2. wrap_column -- column to wrap the base64 encoded message to; defaults to 0 which is do not wrap

Returns:
