[Request] Add an error message for cases where the input does not match the decoding charset

Why is it so unreliable? Are there any limits to how many characters one can use? If so, why is there no graceful error?

[quackduck]

That is so strange. I will investigate

Thanks, I really want to use Aces as an alternative to github.com/xplshn/m_ascii85, since it seems much more powerful, and I'd be able to use it like a base122 encoder

What should happen is: It displays an error or tries to decode the data even if the output is/may be incorrect.

looks like a problem with the generic coder

I don't seem to be able to access that repo. what is it about?

The URL had a typo: https://github.com/xplshn/m_ascii85

Its an alternative to base64 with an efficiency of 80% (according to Wikipedia's page).

I only need to have a wider charset so that archives generated by https://github.com/xplshn/Handyscripts/blob/master/pelf won't bloat the size of each packed file (binary + its libraries or whatever you add) by up to 37%
