MIME::Decoder::QuotedPrint(3)

NAME
MIME::Decoder::QuotedPrint - encode/decode a "quoted-printable" stream

SYNOPSIS
A generic decoder object; see the MIME::Decoder manpage for usage.

DESCRIPTION
A MIME::Decoder subclass for the `"quoted-printable"' encoding. The name was chosen to jibe with the pre-existing MIME::QuotedPrint utility package, which this class actually uses to translate each line. The decoder does a line-by-line translation from input to output. 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, we currently use the native `"\n"' for line breaks, and not `CRLF'. This may need to change in future versions.
