19 * This class defines the encoding half of character encoders.
20 * A character encoder is an algorithim for transforming 8 bit binary
21 * data into text (generally 7 bit ASCII or 8 bit ISO-Latin-1 text)
22 * for transmition over text channels such as e-mail and network news.
23 *
24 * The character encoders have been structured around a central theme
25 * that, in general, the encoded text has the form:
26 *
27 * <pre>
28 * [Buffer Prefix]
29 * [Line Prefix][encoded data atoms][Line Suffix]
30 * [Buffer Suffix]
31 * </pre>
32 *
33 * In the CharacterEncoder and CharacterDecoder classes, one complete
34 * chunk of data is referred to as a <i>buffer</i>. Encoded buffers
35 * are all text, and decoded buffers (sometimes just referred to as
36 * buffers) are binary octets.
37 *
38 * To create a custom encoder, you must, at a minimum, overide three
39 * abstract methods in this class.
40 * <DL>
41 * <DD>bytesPerAtom which tells the encoder how many bytes to
42 * send to encodeAtom
43 * <DD>encodeAtom which encodes the bytes sent to it as text.
44 * <DD>bytesPerLine which tells the encoder the maximum number of
45 * bytes per line.
46 * </DL>
47 *
48 * Several useful encoders have already been written and are
49 * referenced in the See Also list below.
