I need some pointers on | where is the mistake for the above file . Looking at the source code for those functions might tell you why you get different outputs. The python code for base64 is in /Lib. Those two functions are thin wrappers around corresponding C-coded binascii functions. You can access that module via this source tree directory: http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Modules/ The current binascii code is http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Modules/binascii.c?rev=55205&view=auto The interpreter is open source with a liberal license that should allow you to pluck the functions for use elsewhere as long as the add a copyright notice. Otherwise, I agree with Diez that this is OT here. tjr -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
