  26 ;; UTF-7 - A Mail-Safe Transformation Format of Unicode - RFC 2152
  27 ;; This is a transformation format of Unicode that contains only 7-bit
  28 ;; ASCII octets and is intended to be readable by humans in the limiting
  29 ;; case that the document consists of characters from the US-ASCII
  30 ;; repertoire.
  31 ;; In short, runs of characters outside US-ASCII are encoded as base64
  32 ;; inside delimiters.
  33 ;; A variation of UTF-7 is specified in IMAP 4rev1 (RFC 2060) as the way
  34 ;; to represent characters outside US-ASCII in mailbox names in IMAP.
  35 ;; This library supports both variants, but the IMAP variation was the
  36 ;; reason I wrote it.
  37 ;; The routines convert UTF-7 -> UTF-16 (16 bit encoding of Unicode)
  38 ;; -> current character set, and vice versa.
  39 ;; However, until Emacs supports Unicode, the only Emacs character set
  40 ;; supported here is ISO-8859.1, which can trivially be converted to/from
  41 ;; Unicode.
  42 ;; When decoding results in a character outside the Emacs character set,
  43 ;; an error is thrown.  It is up to the application to recover.
  44
  45 ;; UTF-7 should be done by providing a coding system.  Mule-UCS does
  46 ;; already, but I don't know if it does the IMAP version and it's not
  47 ;; clear whether that should really be a coding system.  The UTF-16
  48 ;; part of the conversion can be done with coding systems available
  49 ;; with Mule-UCS or some versions of Emacs.  Unfortunately these were
  50 ;; done wrongly (regarding handling of byte-order marks and how the
  51 ;; variants were named), so we don't have a consistent name for the
  52 ;; necessary coding system.  The code below doesn't seem to DTRT
  53 ;; generally.  E.g.:
  54 ;;
  55 ;; (utf7-encode "a+£")
  56 ;;   => "a+ACsAow-"
  57 ;;
  58 ;; $ echo "a+£"|iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-7
  59 ;; a+-+AKM
