base32-crockford
================

A Python module implementing the alternate base32 encoding as described
by Douglas Crockford at: http://www.crockford.com/wrmg/base32.html.

He designed the encoding to:

   * Be human and machine readable
   * Be compact
   * Be error resistant
   * Be pronounceable

It uses a symbol set of 10 digits and 22 letters, excluding I, L O and
U. Decoding is not case sensitive, and 'i' and 'l' are converted to '1'
and 'o' is converted to '0'. Encoding uses only upper-case characters.

Hyphens may be present in symbol strings to improve readability, and
are removed when decoding.

A check symbol can be appended to a symbol string to detect errors
within the string.
