zbase32 -- Human-oriented encoding for binary data

Package zbase32 implements the z-base-32 encoding as specified in http://philzimmermann.com/docs/human-oriented-base-32-encoding.txt

This package has been extensively tested to match the behavior of the zbase32 Python package.

Note that this is not RFC 4648/3548, for that see encoding/base32. z-base-32 is a variant that aims to be more human-friendly, and in some circumstances shorter.

For usage, see godoc.

Command line utilities

Included are simple command-line utilities for encoding/decoding data. Example:

$ echo hello, world | zbase32-encode
pb1sa5dxfoo8q551pt1yw
$ zbase32-decode pb1sa5dxfoo8q551pt1yw
hello, world
$ printf '\x01binary!!!1\x00' | zbase32-encode
yftg15ubqjh1nejbgryy
$ zbase32-decode yftg15ubqjh1nejbgryy | hexdump -C
00000000  01 62 69 6e 61 72 79 21  21 21 31 00              |.binary!!!1.|
