BASE32(1)

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

SYNOPSIS
base32 [OPTION]... [FILE]

DESCRIPTION

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.
