NAME

basenc - Encode/decode data and print to standard output With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

When decoding, the input may contain newlines in addition to the bytes of the formal alphabet. Use --ignore-garbage to attempt to recover from any other non-alphabet bytes in the encoded stream.

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

Encode/decode data and print to standard output With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

When decoding, the input may contain newlines in addition to the bytes of the formal alphabet. Use --ignore-garbage to attempt to recover from any other non-alphabet bytes in the encoded stream.

OPTIONS

-d, --decode

decode data

-i, --ignore-garbage

when decoding, ignore non-alphabetic characters

-w, --wrap=COLS

wrap encoded lines after COLS character (default 76, 0 to disable wrapping)

--base64

same as 'base64' program

--base64url

file- and url-safe base64

--base32

same as 'base32' program

--base32hex

extended hex alphabet base32

--base16

hex encoding

--base2lsbf

bit string with least significant bit (lsb) first

--base2msbf

bit string with most significant bit (msb) first

--z85

ascii85-like encoding; when encoding, input length must be a multiple of 4; when decoding, input length must be a multiple of 5

-h, --help

Print help

-V, --version
