-The README is used to introduce the module and provide instructions on
-how to install the module, any machine dependencies it may have (for
-example C compilers and installed libraries) and any other information
-that should be provided before the module is installed.
+Base91 is a method for encoding binary data as printable ASCII
+characters. Every two base91 characters (16 bits) encode 13 or 14 bits
+of actual data, thus the overhead is between 14% and 23%, an
+improvement over base64's overhead of 33%.
 
-A README file is required for CPAN modules since CPAN extracts the
-README file from a module distribution so that people browsing the
-archive can use it get an idea of the modules uses. It is usually a
-good idea to provide version information here so that people can
-decide whether fixes for the module are worth downloading.
+This module provides a procedural interface for encoding/decoding
+whole strings and an OO interface for encoding/decoding in chunks.
