MIME::Base32(3) Base32 encoder and decoder

SYNOPSIS


#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use MIME::Base32;
my $encoded = encode_base32('Aladdin: open sesame');
my $decoded = decode_base32($encoded);

DESCRIPTION

This module is for encoding/decoding data much the way that MIME::Base64 does.

Prior to version 1.0, MIME::Base32 used the "base32hex" (or "[0-9A-V]") encoding and decoding methods by default. If you need to maintain that behavior, please call "encode_base32hex" or "decode_base32hex" functions directly.

Now, in accordance with RFC-3548, Section 6 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3548#section-6>, MIME::Base32 uses the "encode_base32" and "decode_base32" functions by default.
