NAME
    baseconv -- convert integers between "special" bases

SYNOPSIS
    baseconv [ -v ] -i base -o base [ # ... ]

    baseconv --version

DESCRIPTION
    baseconv converts integers between bases 2 through 64.
    The first four are useful to programmers and system administrators;
    the others are used mainly when writing shell scripts for encoding
    large numbers (typically to be used as part of a file name).

    If no number is given on the command line, baseconv will read from
    stdin (one number per line); if multiple numbers are given on the
    comamnd line, the results will be printed one per line.

    For all bases greater than 10, the input is case-sensitive.

    The output "digits" for bases greater than 10 are as follows:

	base 11:  0 - 9 A
	base 12:  0 - 9 A B
	base 12:  0 - 9 A B C
	...
	base 16:  0 - 9 A - F
	...
	base 32:  0 - 9 A - U
	base 62:  0 - 9 A - Z a - z
	base 64:  0 - 9 A - Z a - z "{" "}"

OPTIONS
    -i #
	the input base

    -o #
	the output base

    -v
	verbose; show the number in the input base and the output base

    --version
	show the version then exit
