There's a built-in qpdecode stage (as well as a qpencode stage).

! "qpdecode"ssEncode to Quoted-printable
Format
! "qpdecode" decodes records according to the Multipurpose Internet Mail
Exten-
! sions (MIME) quoted-printable encoding format defined in RFC 2045
p.p.
! "qpdecode" operates in the ASCII
domain.
... and so on and so on ...
So, I am confused. What version of the runtime are you using?
