12* Encode byte-string in base 64 *
13*************************************************/
14
15/* This function encodes a string of bytes, containing any values whatsoever,
16in base 64 as defined in RFC 2045 (MIME) and required by the SMTP AUTH
17extension (RFC 2554). The encoding algorithm is written out in a
18straightforward way. Turning it into some kind of compact loop is messy and
19would probably run more slowly.
20
21Arguments:
22 clear points to the clear text bytes
23 len the number of bytes to encode
24
25Returns: a pointer to the zero-terminated base 64 string, which
26 is in working store
