encode public key #8

Closed rekado closed 12 years ago

encode public keys. An encoded public key can be converted to ASCII armour representation by base64 encoding it.

your pull request description is a bit confusing; there's nothing about ASCII armour in the patch.

But i've pulled the public key encoding patch, thanks for the contribution !

Thanks for pulling!

Yeah, upon reading the description again I realise that it is easy to misunderstand. All I meant is that the encoded format can easily be turned into PEM format by base64 encoding it and wrapping it with ---- BEGIN/END PUBLIC KEY ----. The patch itself only creates the ASN1 sequence(s) from a public key.
