NAME
       [MIME::Decoder::QuotedPrint](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/MIME%3A%3ADecoder%3A%3AQuotedPrint/markdown) - encode/decode a "quoted-printable" stream

SYNOPSIS
       A generic decoder object; see [MIME::Decoder](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/MIME%3A%3ADecoder/markdown) for usage.

DESCRIPTION
       A [MIME::Decoder](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/MIME%3A%3ADecoder/markdown) subclass for the "quoted-printable" encoding.  The name
       was chosen to jibe with the pre-existing [MIME::QuotedPrint](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/MIME%3A%3AQuotedPrint/markdown) utility
       package, which this class actually uses to translate each line.

       o   The decoder does a line-by-line translation from input to output.

       o   The encoder does a line-by-line translation, breaking lines so that
           they fall under the standard 76-character limit for this encoding.

       Note: just like [MIME::QuotedPrint](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/MIME%3A%3AQuotedPrint/markdown), we currently use the native "\n" for
       line breaks, and not "CRLF".  This may need to change in future
       versions.
