About BeFoR64

BeFoR64 is a pure Fortran library that encodes and decodes data conforming to the Base64 binary-to-text encoding scheme.

Modern Fortran standards (2003+) introduced better support for string manipulation. BeFoR64 exploits those capabilities to provide an easy-to-use module library for encoding and decoding Fortran types — in their binary internal representation — as ASCII Base64 strings.
