// and any of the encodings listed here:  http://cknotes.com/chilkat-binary-encoding-list

// Convert from hex to base64
$b64 = $crypt->reEncode($hex,'hex','base64');
print 'base64: ' . $b64 . "\n";

// Convert from base64 to base32
$b32 = $crypt->reEncode($b64,'base64','base32');
print 'base32: ' . $b32 . "\n";

// Convert from base32 back to hex
$hex = $crypt->reEncode($b32,'base32','hex');
print 'hex: ' . $hex . "\n";
