14 Quoted-Printable: Encoding and Decoding
The net/qp library provides
utilities for quoted-printable (mime-standard) encoding and decoding
from RFC 2045 section 6.7.
The library was written by Francisco Solsona.
14.1 Functions
Consumes a byte string and returns its quoted printable representation
as a new string. The encoded string uses #"\r\n" where
necessary to create shorter lines.
Consumes a byte string and returns its un-quoted printable
representation as a new string. Non-soft line breaks are preserved in
whatever form they exist (CR, LR, or CRLF) in the input string.
procedure
(qp-encode-stream in out [newline-bstr]) → void?
in : input-port? out : output-port? newline-bstr : bytes? = #"\n"
Reads characters from in and writes the quoted printable
encoded result to out.
The newline-bstr argument is used for soft line-breaks (after =). Note that the default newline-bstr is just #"\n", not #"\r\n".
Other line breaks are preserved in whatever form they exist (CR, LR, or CRLF) in the input stream.
procedure
(qp-decode-stream in out) → void?
in : input-port? out : output-port?
Reads characters from in and writes de-quoted-printable
result to out. Non-soft line breaks are preserved in
whatever form they exist (CR, LR, or CRLF) in the input stream.
14.2 Exceptions
struct
(struct qp-error () #:extra-constructor-name make-qp-error)
struct
(struct qp-wrong-input qp-error () #:extra-constructor-name make-qp-wrong-input)
struct
(struct qp-wrong-line-size qp-error () #:extra-constructor-name make-qp-wrong-line-size)
None of these are used anymore, but the bindings are preserved for
backward compatibility.
14.3 Quoted-Printable Unit
qp@ and qp^ are deprecated. They exist for backward-compatibility and will likely be removed in the future. New code should use the net/qp module.
| (require net/qp-unit) | package: compatibility-lib |
value
qp@ : unit?
Imports nothing, exports qp^.
14.4 -Printable Signature
| (require net/qp-sig) | package: compatibility-lib |
signature
qp^ : signature
Includes everything exported by the net/qp module.
