# rust-base32(1)

encode/decode data and print to standard output With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input. 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.

## NAME

base32 - encode/decode data and print to standard output With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

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.

## SYNOPSIS

**base32** \[**-d**\|**--decode**\] \[**-i**\|**--ignore-garbage**\] \[**-w**\|**--wrap**\] \[**-h**\|**--help**\] \[**-V**\|**--version**\] \[*file*\]

## DESCRIPTION

encode/decode data and print to standard output With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

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.

## OPTIONS

- **-d**, **--decode**

  decode data

- **-i**, **--ignore-garbage**

  when decoding, ignore non-alphabetic characters

- **-w**, **--wrap**=*COLS*

  wrap encoded lines after COLS character (default 76, 0 to disable wrapping)

- **-h**, **--help**

  Print help

- **-V**, **--version**

  Print version

- \[*file*\]
