NAME

6       MIME::Base32 - Base32 encoder and decoder
7

SYNOPSIS

9           #!/usr/bin/env perl
10           use strict;
11           use warnings;
12           use MIME::Base32;
13
14           my $encoded = encode_base32('Aladdin: open sesame');
15           my $decoded = decode_base32($encoded);
16

DESCRIPTION

18       This module is for encoding/decoding data much the way that
19       MIME::Base64 does.
20
21       Prior to version 1.0, MIME::Base32 used the "base32hex" (or "[0-9A-V]")
22       encoding and decoding methods by default. If you need to maintain that
23       behavior, please call "encode_base32hex" or "decode_base32hex"
24       functions directly.
25
26       Now, in accordance with RFC-3548, Section 5
27       <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3548#section-5>, MIME::Base32 uses the
28       "encode_base32" and "decode_base32" functions by default.
