Description: # baseMEOW
        
        baseMEOW is an encoder/decoder that can store binary as a string of characters that spell out "meow" in some way, similar to [`base64`](https://linux.die.net/man/1/base64).
        
        ## Installation
        
        ```bash
        # requires Python 3.6+
        pip install baseMEOW
        ```
        
        ## Usage
        
        ### Encoding
        
        ```bash
        $ echo 'hello' | baseMEOW
        MeEeeOoWmEeooWwmmEeowwwWw
        
        $ echo 'im a kitty' | baseMEOW
        MeEeOwWMeeEEEoOOwwWWWmMmeOoOwMEooWMeeOWwMMMmM
        
        $ dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1 count=30 | baseMEOW
        30+0 records in
        30+0 records out
        30 bytes transferred in 0.000061 secs (491520 bytes/sec)

        ```
        
        
        ### Decoding
        
        ```bash
        $ echo 'MeEeeOoWmEeooWwmmEeowwwWw' | baseMEOW --decode
        hello
        $ echo 'MeEeOwWMeeEEEoOOwwWWWmMmeOoOwMEooWMeeOWwMMMmM' | baseMEOW --decode
        im a kitty
        $
        # non UTF-8 data is printed as hex
        $ echo 'MMmeEOOowMEOWMMmEOowMEeEeEOWwwmeOOOooWmMmMMMeeeowwWmMMeEEOOWWWmmEOoOowwmmeoOWMmMmeEooWMEEeoWwmeOoOoOWWwWWmeEEoOOwWmmeoOwW' | baseMEOW --decode
