sffb64

Format a string into/out of base64
	-i : in to base64 (default)
	-o : out of base64
	-w : line length for formatting to base64
		default is -w 0 for NO end-of-line
	-h : do not process the FipHdr if it exists
		default is to take the whole file as data
	-s : optional input string
	-v : version and exit

	sffb64 -i -s "mylogon:mypwd"
	echo -n "zibble/bongo" | sffb64 -i > /tmp/formattedbase64
	cat MyBase64StringFile | sffb64 -o > /tmp/cleartext

Normally, for into base64, we add a NewLine After the string, use the '-n'
input switch to strip.

Note that if you use 'echo' pls remember to NOT add a NL at the end.

Only other input parameter is -v : version and exit
