Answers to Questions

How to encrypt using Base91 cipher?

Encryption uses a method similar to base64 but with an expanded alphabet to 91 characters: the 94 printable ASCII characters (from 0x21 to 0x7E) omitting -: dash (0x2D), \: backslash (0x5C) and ': apostrophe (0x27).

To simplify, the data is divided into 13-bit binary packets (ie 2 ^ 13 = 8192 values) which are then encoded in 2 letters of the alphabet (which contains 91 characters and 91 ^ 2 = 8281).

Example: DCODE is coded xJ,Jc,A in BasE91

How to decrypt Base91 cipher?

The decryption performs the inverse conversion to base 91.

To simplify, the message is split into groups of 2 letters which are converted into 13-bit data. The message is then read with the original encoding (ASCII or Unicode).

Example: The message encoded in Base 91 xJ,Jc,A is decoded in DCODE.

How to recognize BasE91 ciphertext?

The message is composed only of printable ASCII characters (except dash, backslash and apostrophe) that is 91 characters maximum.

When Base91 have been invented ?

Joachim Henke claim it was invented in 2005, see here (link)
