NAME
MIME::Base32 - Base32 encoder and decoder
SYNOPSIS
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use MIME::Base32;
my $encoded = encode_base32('Aladdin: open sesame');
my $decoded = decode_base32($encoded);
DESCRIPTION
This module is for encoding/decoding data much the way that MIME::Base64 does.
Prior to version 1.0, MIME::Base32 used the "base32hex" (or "[0-9A-V]") encoding and
decoding methods by default. If you need to maintain that behavior, please call
"encode_base32hex" or "decode_base32hex" functions directly.
Now, in accordance with RFC-3548, Section 5
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3548#section-5>, MIME::Base32 uses the "encode_base32" and
"decode_base32" functions by default.
