BASE32(1)                       User Commands                      BASE32(1)

NAME         top

       base32 - base32 encode/decode data and print to standard output

SYNOPSIS         top

       base32 [OPTION]... [FILE]

DESCRIPTION         top

       Base32 encode or decode FILE, or standard input, to standard output.

       With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options
       too.

       -d, --decode
              decode data

       -i, --ignore-garbage
              when decoding, ignore non-alphabet characters

       -w, --wrap=COLS
              wrap encoded lines after COLS character (default 76).  Use 0
              to disable line wrapping

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
              output version information and exit

       The data are encoded as described for the base32 alphabet in RFC
       4648.  When decoding, the input may contain newlines in addition to
       the bytes of the formal base32 alphabet.  Use --ignore-garbage to
       attempt to recover from any other non-alphabet bytes in the encoded
       stream.
