Re: base64 tool?


From: Simon Josefsson
Subject: Re: base64 tool?
Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2006 18:45:22 +0100
User-agent: Gnus/5.110004 (No Gnus v0.4) Emacs/22.0.50 (gnu/linux)

Here is an updated patch for Coreutils to provide the base64 command.

I believe I have addressed all major comments given earlier, I'm
Cc:ing all people who helped me, maybe they can help review it again.

The lib/base64.? files are from gnulib.

Warning: it has not been tested much at all!

Thanks!
