Notes
-----
(Apologies - this supercedes Errata ID 2549).

The signatures in sections 3.1, 3.4.1.1, and 3.4.1.3.1 of the RFC have
mistakenly been calculated as if with "GET". I have supplied the correct
"POST" signatures in the corrected text.

For reference, here is the perl script I used to calculate the signatures:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Digest::HMAC_SHA1;
use URI::Escape;
use MIME::Base64;

my $unsafe = '^-._~A-Za-z0-9';
my $client_secret = 'j49sk3j29djd';
my $token_secret = 'dh893hdasih9';
my $key = join('&', $client_secret, $token_secret);

my $uri_base = 'http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Frequest';
my $params = join('', qw(
    a2%3Dr%2520b%26a3%3D2%2520q%26a3%3Da%26b5%3D
    %253D%25253D%26c%2540%3D%26c2%3D%26oauth_con
    sumer_key%3D9djdj82h48djs9d2%26oauth_nonce%3
    D7d8f3e4a%26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-SH
    A1%26oauth_timestamp%3D137131201%26oauth_tok
    en%3Dkkk9d7dh3k39sjv7
));

foreach my $method ('GET', 'POST') {
    my $base_sig = join('&', $method, $uri_base, $params);
    my $bin_sig = Digest::HMAC_SHA1::hmac_sha1($base_sig, $key);
    my $b64_sig = MIME::Base64::encode_base64($bin_sig, '');
    my $enc_sig = URI::Escape::uri_escape($b64_sig, $unsafe);
    printf "%-8s %s\n", $method, $enc_sig;
}
