title: Decoding base64 in batch
body: <p>I am trying to make an installer using batch. Of course, an installer needs to consist of files that will be installed, so I'm thinking of encoding the files in base64, and simply decode them and write them to their destination.</p>
  
  <p>Of course, my work would be very easy if Windows had something like the <code>base64</code> tool that Linux boxes contain. However, since it's simply not there, is there any way to decode base64 content <em>completely</em> using batch files? And how would I accomplish this?</p>
  
  <p>Any help is appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>(It's just an experiment, so I'm not worried about inefficiency and the like.)</p>
