base64 -d your-content.txt

I hope this helps,

Hi,

I'm trying to retrieve attachments stored in a XAR export file.

According to documentation (see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XAR+Module+Specificatio...) XML node <attachment> contains everything I need to get files content but how is encoded and how to decode the node <content> ?

Thanks for your answers, best regards,
