Base64 encoding and decoding functions
1. Introduction
This module implements Base64 encoding and decoding as specified by
section 6.8 of RFC 2045.
2. Functions
2.1. Encoding
(base64-encode-vector byte-vector [output-port]) -> port/string
Encode the given BYTE-VECTOR, put the result on the OUTPUT-PORT, and
return it. If no OUTPUT-PORT is given, encoding is done in a string,
which is returned.
(base64-encode-port input-port [output-port]) -> port/string
Encode the contents of the INPUT-PORT and put the result on the
OUTPUT-PORT. If no OUTPUT-PORT is given, encoding is done in a string,
which is returned.
(base64-encode-string string [output-port]) -> port/string
Encode the contents of the STRING and put the result on the
OUTPUT-PORT. If no OUTPUT-PORT is given, encoding is done in a string,
which is returned.
2.2. Decoding
(base64-decode-string string [output-port]) -> port/string
Decode the contents of the STRING, and put the result on the
OUTPUT-PORT. If no OUTPUT-PORT is given, decoding is done in a string,
which is returned.
(base64-decode-port input-port [output-port]) -> port/string
Decode the contents of the INPUT-PORT, and put the result on the
OUTPUT-PORT. If no OUTPUT-PORT is given, decoding is done in a string,
which is returned.
