btoa used base85, and I believe is the same base85 encoding that Ned's 
been referring to in his messages to this thread.
From the btoa man page:

        FEATURES
                It uses a compact base-85 encoding so that
                4 bytes are encoded into 5 characters.
        BUGS
                It uses an obscure base-85 "squoz code" scheme
                to encode 4 bytes into 5 characters.
