Here, for comparison, is a RiscLua version of Base64 encoding/decoding.
#! lua
local char in string
local concat in table
local pairs = pairs
module "base64" -- exports encode,decode
local f = \ (self, z) self[1 + #self] = z end
local stk = \ ( ) => { push = f } end
local C = { } -- encryption table
for i = 0, 25 do

end
for i = 52, 61 do C[i] = char (i-4) end -- digits
C[62], C[63] = '-','_' -- 2 extra +,/ for standard
encode = \ (data)
local bb, x, r = { }, stk ( ), nil
for s = 0, #data - 1, 3 do

end -- for
=> concat (x) end -- function
local B = { } -- decryption table
for key, value in pairs (C) do B[value] = key end -- invert C
decode = \ (data)
local cc, y, n, j = { }, stk ( ), 256, nil
