Base62 support?

Hey, thanks for a great library.

Do you plan to support base62?

Thanks @alexeyshockov, what's the use case for it? It looks like a less human-friendly Base58 variant. :)

Sorry for a late answer... Actually I already solved my initial problem with another solution, without any additional encoding/decoding. So no need, at least for me now :)

Overall IMO it would make sense to just add base62, because the lib already supports multiple encoding, so adding another one will make it more complete. But maybe it makes sense to wait for another person with such a request :)

Closing for now.

I found references to Base62 on these pages:
