This is a base64 library for Lua 5.1-5.3. For information on base64 see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64

To try the library, just edit Makefile to reflect your installation of Lua and then run make. This will build the library and run a simple test. For detailed installation instructions, see http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/install.html

There is no manual but the library is simple and intuitive; see the summary below. Read also test.lua, which shows the library in action.
