Support base58 encoding #9

It'd be great if there was from_ascii and to_ascci base58 support.

Is there an RFC for that? How standard is base58?

My guess is he's looking to incorporate it into a cryptocurrency, and existing wallet/etc libraries output base58 a lot to prevent miscopying addresses and the like.
