# based
A commandline tool that lets you encode and decode most of the bases.
Release binary is statically linked and stripped via
```sh
cabal v2-build --enable-executable-static -O2
strip --strip-all based
```
## Compilation
* If you want to compile your own build, link it dynamically via
```sh
git clone https://git.stefan.works/whx/based.git
cd based/
cabal install
cabal run
```

* Modes are __encode__ and __decode__
* Encoding is done in the following way
```sh
echo Hello, World! | based encode --b91
>OwJh>}AQ;r@@Y?FF

* Decoding is implicated in the following way
