+=head1 NAME
+
+MIME::QuotedPrint - Encoding and decoding of quoted-printable strings
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use MIME::QuotedPrint;
+
+ $encoded = encode_qp($decoded);
+ $decoded = decode_qp($encoded);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module provides functions to encode and decode strings into and from the
+quoted-printable encoding specified in RFC 2045 - I<MIME (Multipurpose
+Internet Mail Extensions)>.  The quoted-printable encoding is intended
+to represent data that largely consists of bytes that correspond to
+printable characters in the ASCII character set.  Each non-printable
+character (as defined by English Americans) is represented by a
+triplet consisting of the character "=" followed by two hexadecimal
+digits.
+
+The following functions are provided:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item encode_qp($str)
+
+=item encode_qp($str, $eol)
+
+=item encode_qp($str, $eol, $binmode)
+
+This function returns an encoded version of the string ($str) given as
+argument.
+
+The second argument ($eol) is the line-ending sequence to use.  It is
+optional and defaults to "\n".  Every occurrence of "\n" is replaced
+with this string, and it is also used for additional "soft line
+breaks" to ensure that no line end up longer than 76 characters.  Pass
+it as "\015\012" to produce data suitable for external consumption.
+The string "\r\n" produces the same result on many platforms, but not
+all.
+
+The third argument ($binmode) will select binary mode if passed as a
+TRUE value.  In binary mode "\n" will be encoded in the same way as
+any other non-printable character.  This ensures that a decoder will
+end up with exactly the same string whatever line ending sequence it
+uses.  In general it is preferable to use the base64 encoding for
+binary data; see L<MIME::Base64>.
+
+An $eol of "" (the empty string) is special.  In this case, no "soft
+line breaks" are introduced and binary mode is effectively enabled so
+that any "\n" in the original data is encoded as well.
+
+=item decode_qp($str);
+
+This function returns the plain text version of the string given
+as argument.  The lines of the result are "\n" terminated, even if
+the $str argument contains "\r\n" terminated lines.
+
+=back
+
+
+If you prefer not to import these routines into your namespace, you can
+call them as:
+
+  use MIME::QuotedPrint ();
+  $encoded = MIME::QuotedPrint::encode($decoded);
+  $decoded = MIME::QuotedPrint::decode($encoded);
+
+Perl v5.8 and better allow extended Unicode characters in strings.
+Such strings cannot be encoded directly, as the quoted-printable
+encoding is only defined for single-byte characters.  The solution is
+to use the Encode module to select the byte encoding you want.  For
+example:
+
+    use MIME::QuotedPrint qw(encode_qp);
+    use Encode qw(encode);
+
+    $encoded = encode_qp(encode("UTF-8", "\x{FFFF}\n"));
+    print $encoded;
