+/**
+ * Encodes and decodes to and from Base64 notation.
+ *
+ * <p>
+ * Change Log:
+ * </p>
+ * <ul>
+ *  <li>v2.1 - Cleaned up javadoc comments and unused variables and methods. Added
+ *   some convenience methods for reading and writing to and from files.</li>
+ *  <li>v2.0.2 - Now specifies UTF-8 encoding in places where the code fails on systems
+ *   with other encodings (like EBCDIC).</li>
+ *  <li>v2.0.1 - Fixed an error when decoding a single byte, that is, when the
+ *   encoded data was a single byte.</li>
+ *  <li>v2.0 - I got rid of methods that used booleans to set options. 
+ *   Now everything is more consolidated and cleaner. The code now detects
+ *   when data that's being decoded is gzip-compressed and will decompress it
+ *   automatically. Generally things are cleaner. You'll probably have to
+ *   change some method calls that you were making to support the new
+ *   options format (<tt>int</tt>s that you "OR" together).</li>
+ *  <li>v1.5.1 - Fixed bug when decompressing and decoding to a             
+ *   byte[] using <tt>decode( String s, boolean gzipCompressed )</tt>.      
+ *   Added the ability to "suspend" encoding in the Output Stream so        
+ *   you can turn on and off the encoding if you need to embed base64       
+ *   data in an otherwise "normal" stream (like an XML file).</li>  
+ *  <li>v1.5 - Output stream pases on flush() command but doesn't do anything itself.
+ *      This helps when using GZIP streams.
+ *      Added the ability to GZip-compress objects before encoding them.</li>
+ *  <li>v1.4 - Added helper methods to read/write files.</li>
+ *  <li>v1.3.6 - Fixed OutputStream.flush() so that 'position' is reset.</li>
+ *  <li>v1.3.5 - Added flag to turn on and off line breaks. Fixed bug in input stream
+ *      where last buffer being read, if not completely full, was not returned.</li>
+ *  <li>v1.3.4 - Fixed when "improperly padded stream" error was thrown at the wrong time.</li>
+ *  <li>v1.3.3 - Fixed I/O streams which were totally messed up.</li>
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * <p>
+ * I am placing this code in the Public Domain. Do with it as you will.
+ * This software comes with no guarantees or warranties but with
+ * plenty of well-wishing instead!
+ * Please visit <a href="http://iharder.net/base64">http://iharder.net/base64</a>

+          There are other Base64 utilities on the Internet, some part

+          In any event, I hope with one or more of these Base64 tools, you won't

+          <strong>Changes:</strong>
+          <ul>
+<li>v2.1 - Cleaned up javadoc comments and unused variables and methods. Added
+    some convenience methods for reading and writing to and from files.</li>
+ <li>
+  v2.0.2 - Now specifies UTF-8 encoding in places where the code fails on systems
+   with other encodings (like EBCDIC).
+ </li>
+   
+   <li>v2.0.1 - Fixed an error when decoding a single byte, that is, when the
+     encoded data was a single byte.</li>
+   <li>v2.0 - I got rid of methods that used booleans to set options. 
+    Now everything is more consolidated and cleaner. The code now detects
+    when data that's being decoded is gzip-compressed and will decompress it
+    automatically. Generally things are cleaner. You'll probably have to
+    change some method calls that you were making to support the new
+    options format (<tt>int</tt>s that you &quot;OR&quot; together).</li>
+
+           <li>v1.5.1 - Fixed bug when decompressing and decoding to a
+            byte[] using <tt>decode( String s, boolean gzipCompressed )</tt>.
+            Added the ability to &quot;suspend&quot; encoding in the Output Stream so
+            you can turn on and off the encoding if you need to embed base64
+            data in an otherwise &quot;normal&quot; stream (like an XML file).
+            <em>This has not been fully tested, so please alert me to bugs.</em></li>
+           <li>v1.5 - Output stream pases on flush() command but doesn't do anything itself. This helps when using GZIP streams. Added the ability to <strong>GZip-compress objects</strong> before encoding them.</li>
+           <li>v1.4 - Added some helper methods for reading and writing to/from files.</li>
+           <li>v1.3.6 - Fixed OutputStream.flush() so that 'position' is reset.</li>
+           <li>v1.3.5 - Added flag to turn on and off line breaks. Fixed bug in input stream
+               where last buffer being read, if not completely full, was not returned.</li>
+           <li>v1.3.4 - Fixed when <em>Improperly padded base64 stream</em> exception
+               was incorrectly thrown.</li>
+           <li>A bug has been fixed that kept I/O streams from working at all, really.</li>
+           <li>A bug has been fixed affecting you if you use the Base64.InputStream
+            to encode data.
+           </li>
+           <li>A bug has been fixed where if you specified an offset when encoding
+            an array of bytes, the offset was ignored. 
+           </li>
+          </ul>
+        </p>

+      </div>

+    <div class="MainSectionTitle">Example</div><div class="MainSectionBody">
+        <p>
+          The easiest way to convert some data is with the convenience methods:
+        </p>
+<code><pre>String result1 = <strong>Base64.encodeObject</strong>( mySerializableObject );
+String result2 = <strong>Base64.encodeBytes</strong>( new byte[]{ 3, 34, 116, 9 } );
+</pre></code>   
+     
+        <p>
+          Or you can use the very efficient streams:
+        </p>
+<code><pre>OutputStream out = <strong>new Base64.OutputStream</strong>( 
+                    new FileOutputStream( &quot;out.txt&quot; ) );
+// Go on about your outputting...
+// ...
+
+InputStream in = <strong>new Base64.InputStream</strong>( 
+                  new FileInputStream( &quot;in.txt&quot; ) );
+// Go on about your inputting...
+// ...
+</pre></code>        
+
+
+        <p>
+          There are defaults (OutputStream encodes, InputStream decodes),
+          but you can easily override that:
+        </p>
+<code><pre>OutputStream out = new Base64.OutputStream( 
+                    new FileOutputStream( &quot;out.txt&quot; ), <strong>Base64.DECODE</strong> );
+// Go on about your outputting...
+// ...
+</pre></code>
