Y64? "Y64 is a base64 variant used at Yahoo! when base64 information needs to be transmitted as part of a GET request. Regular base64 has three characters that aren’t URL-safe: plus (+), slash (/), and equals (=). Y64 encoding replaces these with dot (.), underscore (_), and dash (-), respectively." Or would case sensitivity be too crazy? -- Moritz Bartl https://www.torservers.net/ _______________________________________________ tor-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-dev
