Description: 
        Baudot is a Python library for encoding and decoding 5-bit stateful encoding.
        
        This library is named after `Jean-Maurice-Émile Baudot`_ (1845-1903), the French
        engineer who invented this code. The `Baudot code`_ was the first practical and
        widely used binary character encoding, and is an ancestor of the ASCII code we
        are familiar with today.
        
        This library accomplishes two tasks (and their inverse):
        
        1. reading 5-bit codes from custom input formats,
        2. converting 5-bit codes to unicode characters.
        
        This library provides support for several common encodings, as well as support
        for reading tape-like files and hexadecimal data.
        
        Please keep in mind that this project is very young, and that its API is most
        likely ill-designed at this point. Suggestions are welcome!
