Base-64 is also just a simple 6-bit encoding using a lookup table ;-)

Looking at the code you referenced, it appears that your encoding
algorithm is the same as the base-64 algorithm, but your lookup table
is slightly different (yours includes space and underscore instead of
plus and slash, and the rest are offset by one.)

Thanks for the answer.
