Description: module for encoding and decoding of ascii85/base85 strings
Convert::Ascii85 implements the Ascii85 (also known as Base85) algorithm for
encoding binary data as text. This is done by interpreting each group of four
bytes as a 32-bit integer, which is then converted to a five-digit base-85
representation using the digits from ASCII 33 (!) to 117 (u).
.
This is similar to MIME::Base64 but more space efficient: The overhead is
only 1/4 of the original data (as opposed to 1/3 for Base64).
