sixword
Sixword encodes binary data in a human-friendly format using English words.
It uses the 6-word binary encoding created for S/Key (tm) and standardized
by RFC 2289, RFC 1760, and RFC 1751. Binary data is encoded using a
dictionary of 2048 short English words (1-4 letters in length). Each block
of 64 bits is encoded using 6 words, which includes 2 parity bits for error
checking. This is ideal for transmitting binary data such as cryptographic
keys where humans must communicate or enter the values.
