Re: How to generate 64-character length lines in base64?

Specify a blank eol character when you encode it, then break it up however you want.

Update: oops, removed bogus double quotes

use MIME::Base64;

my $str = 'Whatever';

my $encoded = encode_base64($str, '');

$encoded =~ s/(.{1,64})/$1\n/g;

print $encoded;

Thank you! I did wonder about this, but was unsure about '=' padding if/when required. `encode` with the default EOL would handle that for me, I believe. Perhaps breaking it up myself could necessitate change some line endings? I'll read a few more spec details and play with this.	[reply] [d/l]
