;;; Commentary:
;;; UTF-7 - A Mail-Safe Transformation Format of Unicode - RFC 2152
;;; This is a transformation format of Unicode that contains only 7-bit
;;; ASCII octets and is intended to be readable by humans in the limiting
;;; case that the document consists of characters from the US-ASCII
;;; repertoire.
;;; In short, runs of characters outside US-ASCII are encoded as base64
;;; inside delimiters.
;;; A variation of UTF-7 is specified in IMAP 4rev1 (RFC 2060) as the way
;;; to represent characters outside US-ASCII in mailbox names in IMAP.
;;; This library supports both variants, but the IMAP variation was the
;;; reason I wrote it.
;;; The routines convert UTF-7 -> UTF-16 (16 bit encoding of Unicode)
;;; -> current character set, and vice versa.
;;; However, until Emacs supports Unicode, the only Emacs character set
;;; supported here is ISO-8859.1, which can trivially be converted to/from
;;; Unicode.
;;; When decoding results in a character outside the Emacs character set,
;;; an error is thrown.  It is up to the application to recover.
