Scott King ea4361ad78 Update api.py
ListSubscriptions isn't as messed up as it was json-wise, and is more readable. ( HandleListAddresses still needs fixed with json as well. )
base64 is imported and used in _decode because .decode() appends a newline character to each encoded string.
_decode now doesn't use .decode() and instead uses hexlify(text) and base64.b64decode(text).

PyBitmessage

Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication, which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs.

Development

Bitmessage is a collaborative project. You are welcome to submit pull requests although if you plan to put a non-trivial amount of work into coding new features, it is recommended that you first solicit feedback on the DevTalk pseudo-mailing list: BM-2D9QKN4teYRvoq2fyzpiftPh9WP9qggtzh
