Is there a convenient way to return the raw bytes of decoding? #38

No because it doesn't really make sense. Any QR code's raw bytes are meant to be decoded to text and/or numbers in a specific way. The only thing you could realistically do with the raw bytes is decode it yourself, but I'm not sure why you would want to do that?

Thank you for your reply. I want a offline device to communicate through QR code. Sometimes, a message lenth is over the capability of QR codes, especially with long BigInt types unless BigInt is converted to raw bytes. That's when I want to the raw bytes of the decoding result.
