NAME

       ascii85 - encodes or decodes files using Ascii85 ruby library

SYNOPSIS

       ascii85 [OPTIONS] FILES

DESCRIPTION

       Ascii85 (also called "Base85") is a form of binary-to-text encoding, wich is mainly used
       in Adobe's PostScript and PDF format.

       ascii85 is a command line utility, modeled after base64(1) from the GNU coreutils, can
       encode text files to Ascii85 or decode Ascii85 files to text, and then print the result to
       the standard output.

       If no file is given on the command line, ascii85 reads from the standard input.
