Short: Fast base64 (MIME) decoder/encoder. V1.0 Author: edmundv@grafix.xs4all.nl Uploader: edmundv@grafix.xs4all.nl Type: comm/misc Base64Decode & Base64Encode are a fast decoder and encoder for base64 (MIME) encoded binaries that can be sent through electronic mail. Base64 encoding is very much like uuencoding, only it is part of the much more comprehensive MIME format. MIME allows you to send pictures, sound and other binary files in a text message. If you do not have a MIME aware mail reader then you will not see the effect of this but at least you can now decode the included binaries thanks to Base64Decode! Simply save the base64 encoded part as a text file and have Base64Decode decode it for you. Features - Simple and easy to use Shell commands. - Written in 100% assembly for optimal speed and size. - Faster than any other base64 decoder/encoder for the Amiga known to me. - Separate (faster) '020 versions included. - Decoder is not so fussy if the base64 code is embedded in some text. This is not fool proof though (it can't be). By using the USEMINLEN option this is greatly improved. - User settable I/O buffer size. - The code is pure, so they can be made resident. Requirements Base64Decode & Base64Encode require Kickstart 2.0 or higher to operate. The '020 versions require a 68020 or higher CPU. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 632 285 54.9% 20-Dec-95 16:00:52 Base64Coders.info 1316 881 33.0% 26-Dec-95 14:50:50 +Base64Decode 1136 872 23.2% 26-Dec-95 14:12:20 +Base64Encode 1312 887 32.3% 26-Dec-95 14:51:58 +Base64Decode 1132 876 22.6% 26-Dec-95 14:10:52 +Base64Encode 6213 2771 55.3% 26-Dec-95 15:51:42 +Base64Coders.guide 468 221 52.7% 11-Dec-95 16:57:04 +Base64Coders.guide.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 12209 6793 44.3% 27-Dec-95 09:24:38 7 files
