/**
 * This class implements a robust character encoder. The encoder is designed
 * to convert binary data into printable characters. The characters are
 * assumed to exist but they are not assumed to be ASCII, the complete set
 * is 0-9, A-Z, a-z, "(", and ")".
 *
 * The basic encoding unit is a 3 character atom. It encodes two bytes
 * of data. Bytes are encoded into a 64 character set, the characters
 * were chosen specifically because they appear in all codesets.
 * We don't care what their numerical equivalent is because
 * we use a character array to map them. This is like UUencoding
 * with the dependency on ASCII removed.
 *
 * The three chars that make up an atom are encoded as follows:
 * <pre>
 *      00xxxyyy 00axxxxx 00byyyyy
 *      00 = leading zeros, all values are 0 - 63
 *      xxxyyy - Top 3 bits of X, Top 3 bits of Y
 *      axxxxx - a = X parity bit, xxxxx lower 5 bits of X
 *      byyyyy - b = Y parity bit, yyyyy lower 5 bits of Y
 * </pre>
 *
 * The atoms are arranged into lines suitable for inclusion into an
 * email message or text file. The number of bytes that are encoded
 * per line is 48 which keeps the total line length  under 80 chars)
 *
 * Each line has the form(
 * <pre>
 *  *(LLSS)(DDDD)(DDDD)(DDDD)...(CRC)
 *  Where each (xxx) represents a three character atom.
 *  (LLSS) - 8 bit length (high byte), and sequence number
 *           modulo 256;
 *  (DDDD) - Data byte atoms, if length is odd, last data
 *           atom has (DD00) (high byte data, low byte 0)
 *  (CRC)  - 16 bit CRC for the line, includes length,
 *           sequence, and all data bytes. If there is a
 *           zero pad byte (odd length) it is _NOT_
 *           included in the CRC.
 * </pre>
