converting tiny binary strings for internet transmissionby zentara (Archbishop) |

zentara has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi, I have a password that is encrypted with RC4, which results
in a short binary string of non-prinable characters. I am looking for
something like uuencode to change it to printable characters, so
it can be stored as a cookie, retreived, and decoded.
The problem is that the string is very short, and uuencode is
probably overkill on it.
What are good methods to do this conversion?
