cardano-tx add-output only supports base58 encoded addresses

[piotr-iohk]

I was trying to follow -> https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-transactions/wiki/How-to-submit-transaction-via-cardano-tx-CLI To construct transaction on Shelley testnet using Shelley wallet, but cannot do this:

cardano-tx empty 42 \

:point_down:

I suppose it is due to the fact that cardano-tx add-output only support base58 encoded addresses:

$ cardano-tx add-output
An output is made of:
  - A coin value in Lovelace (1 Ada = 1e6 Lovelace).
  - A target address, base58-encoded.

Not sure if support for base16 needs to be added, but probably for bech32 as the Shelley addresses will be encoded like that in the wallet. :thinking:

From your log output it also looks like this CLI should use say or Data.ByteString.Char8.putStrLn, so that the lines are not mixed up with each other.
