/** 
 * A class to encode Base64 streams and strings.  
 * See RFC 1521 section 5.2 for details of the Base64 algorithm.
 * <p>
 * This class can be used for encoding strings:
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * String unencoded = "webmaster:try2gueSS";
 * String encoded = Base64Encoder.encode(unencoded);
 * </pre></blockquote>
 * or for encoding streams:
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * OutputStream out = new Base64Encoder(System.out);
 * </pre></blockquote>
 *
 * @author <b>Jason Hunter</b>, Copyright © 2000
 * @version 1.2, 2002/11/01, added encode(byte[]) method to better handle
 *                           binary data (thanks to Sean Graham)
 * @version 1.1, 2000/11/17, fixed bug with sign bit for char values
 * @version 1.0, 2000/06/11
