4	  qprint is a program that encodes and decodes binary data in
5	  the Quoted-Printable encoding, defined as a part of the MIME
6	  specification in RFC 1521. This encoding allows for efficient
7	  transfer of mostly ASCII data over transports that are only
8	  7-bit clean, like SMTP without 8BITMIME or BINARYMIME
9	  extensions. It also allows the transfer of long lines of text
10	  by wrapping them every 76 characters.

12	  Usually, a sophisticated MUA will take care of automatically
13	  choosing the best encodings for an e-mail. Nevertheless, this
14	  utility may be useful when a MTA (e.g. msmtp) is used without
15	  a MUA, or if using this encoding for other purposes is
16	  desired.
