#include <stdlib.h>long a64l(const char s);
char l64a(long l);
char l64a_r(long l, char ret, size_t buflen);
The characters used to represent ``digits'' are . for 0, / for 1, 0 through 9 for 2-11, A through Z for 12-37, and a through z for 38-63.
a64l takes a pointer to a null-terminated base-64 representation and returns a corresponding long value. If the string pointed to by s contains more than six characters, a64l will use the first six.
a64l scans the character string from left to right with the least significant digit on the left, decoding each character as a 6-bit radix-64 number.
l64a takes a long argument and returns a pointer to the corresponding base-64 representation. If the argument is 0, l64a returns a pointer to a null string.
l64a_r stores the base-64 representation of l in the user supplied buffer ret of size buflen. It returns ret upon successful completion.
Use the reentrant function l64a_r for multi-threaded applications.
