<P>MIME::Decoder::Gzip64 - decode a &quot;base64&quot; gzip stream



<P><HR>
<A NAME="SYNOPSIS"><H2><A HREF="#__TOP__"><IMG SRC="icons/h1bullet.gif" ALT="Top" BORDER="0"></A> SYNOPSIS</H2></A>


<P>A generic decoder object; see <A HREF="../../MIME/Decoder.pm.html">MIME::Decoder</A> for usage.

<A NAME="DESCRIPTION"><H2><A HREF="#__TOP__"><IMG SRC="icons/h1bullet.gif" ALT="Top" BORDER="0"></A> DESCRIPTION</H2></A>


<P>A MIME::Decoder::Base64 subclass for a nonstandard encoding whereby
data are gzipped, then the gzipped file is base64-encoded.
Common non-standard MIME encodings for this:

<FONT SIZE=3 FACE="courier"><PRE>
    x-gzip64
</PRE></FONT>

<P>Since this class relies on external programs which may not
exist on your machine, MIME-tools does not &quot;install&quot; it by default.  
To use it, you need to say in your main program:

<FONT SIZE=3 FACE="courier"><PRE>
    install MIME::Decoder::Gzip64 'x-gzip64';
</PRE></FONT>

<P>Note: if this class isn't working for you, you may need to change
the commands it runs.  In your main program, you can do so
by setting up the two commands which 

<FONT SIZE=3 FACE="courier"><PRE>
    use MIME::Decoder::Gzip64;
     
    $MIME::Decoder::Gzip64::GZIP   = 'gzip -c';
    $MIME::Decoder::Gzip64::GUNZIP = 'gzip -d -c';
</PRE></FONT>
