I think using the established international "standard" of Base64 is a 
good option to convert to.  It should be easy to write a function that 
gives this "sage6" format of the graph.  It would probably make sense to 
follow the other conventions of graph6/sparse6 (i.e., edge traversal 
order, etc.)
