## Overview

The ascii85 provides an ASCII 85 or base 85 decoding algorithm. It is class and stream based: the TASCII85DecoderStream stream can be used to decode any stream with ASCII85 encoded data.

Currently, no ASCII85 encoder stream is available.

It's usage and purpose is similar to the IDEA or base64 units.
