based

A commandline tool that lets you encode and decode most of the bases.

Release binary is statically linked and stripped via

cabal v2-build --enable-executable-static -O2
strip --strip-all based

Do not forget to set $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the directory of your static libs.

Compilation

• If you want to compile your own build, link it dynamically via

git clone https://git.stefan.works/whx/based.git
cd based/
cabal install
cabal run

Usage

• Pipe via stdin to transcode
• Modes are encode and decode
• Encoding is done in the following way

echo Hello, World! | based encode --b91
>OwJh>}AQ;r@@Y?FF

• Decoding is implicated in the following way

echo '>OwJh>}AQ;r@@Y?FF' | based --b91
Hello, World!
