  Version         : 2.2.0

  Description     : Encode binary file to printable utf16be, and vise versa.

We use 16384 Chinese characters (from \u4E00 to \u8DFF) as the "alphabet",
just like what base64 did.
If length of the data has a remainder after mod 7,
we will use \u3Dxx to present it with xx ranging from 01 to 06.

 - I designed this base64-like algorithm and had published it
   to my lauchpad PPA https://code.launchpad.net/~fumiama/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
   It seems to work well so that I hope to see more people
   who can use this util easily by entering apt-get directly.

 - I have read the wiki and found that in order to pubish my
   package to Debian, I am requested to get a sponsor for it.
   So I will file a RFS bug report later.
