.. function:: decode(input, output, header=False)
Decode the contents of the *input* file and write the resulting decoded binary
data to the *output* file. *input* and *output* must be :term:`file objects
<file object>`. *input* will be read until ``input.readline()`` returns an
empty string. If the optional argument *header* is present and true, underscore
data to the *output* file. *input* and *output* must be :term:`binary file objects
<file object>`. If the optional argument *header* is present and true, underscore
will be decoded as space. This is used to decode "Q"-encoded headers as
described in :rfc:`1522`: "MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)
Part Two: Message Header Extensions for Non-ASCII Text".

.. function:: encode(input, output, quotetabs, header=False)
Encode the contents of the *input* file and write the resulting quoted-printable
data to the *output* file. *input* and *output* must be :term:`file objects
<file object>`. *input* will be read until ``input.readline()`` returns an
empty string. *quotetabs* is a flag which controls whether to encode embedded
spaces and tabs; when true it encodes such embedded whitespace, and when
false it leaves them unencoded. Note that spaces and tabs appearing at the
end of lines are always encoded, as per :rfc:`1521`. *header* is a flag
which controls if spaces are encoded as underscores as per :rfc:`1522`.

.. function:: decodestring(s, header=False)
Like :func:`decode`, except that it accepts a source string and returns the
corresponding decoded string.
Like :func:`decode`, except that it accepts a source :class:`bytes` and
returns the corresponding decoded :class:`bytes`.
.. function:: encodestring(s, quotetabs=False, header=False)
Like :func:`encode`, except that it accepts a source string and returns the
corresponding encoded string. *quotetabs* and *header* are optional
(defaulting to ``False``), and are passed straight through to :func:`encode`.
Like :func:`encode`, except that it accepts a source :class:`bytes` and
returns the corresponding encoded :class:`bytes`. By default, it sends a
False value to *quotetabs* parameter of the :func:`encode` function.
