The ASCII85 encoding is a binary string encoding where every four bytes are encoded with five ASCII letters, using 85 different types of characters.

Unfortunately, it's not in $CharacterEncodings:

We can do this with python:

ascii85decode(b'9jqo^BlbD-BleB1DJ+*+F(f,q')

yields 'Man is distinguished', but how to do this in Mathematica?

    The python code example which do the conversion can be directly ported to MMA, what is a problem? The built-in way is absent. – Rom38 Sep 28 '17 at 05:09
  • Of course it can be, I’m asking if there’s any built in way – M.R. Sep 28 '17 at 05:17
  • You are only interested in a built-in way, or is a fast, terse, or elegant implementation of interest as well? (I don't have anything yet, just clarifying.) – Mr.Wizard Sep 28 '17 at 06:54
  • Yes I think I’m interested in any answer – M.R. Sep 29 '17 at 00:07
