          --base64              Base64 input/output format
          --hex                 HEX input/output format

    Examples:

        Encrypt:

            pkcs5-tool --algorithm PBEWithHmacSHA1AndAES_128 --password mypassword --input secret --encrypt

        Decrypt:

            pkcs5-tool --algorithm PBEWithHmacSHA1AndAES_128 --password mypassword --input <Base64 encrypted data> --decrypt

        Read input from STDIN:

            echo -n "secret" | pkcs5-tool --algorithm PBEWithHmacSHA1AndAES_128 --password mypassword --encrypt
            pkcs5-tool --algorithm PBEWithHmacSHA1AndAES_128 --password mypassword --encrypt < /path/of/secret

        env: or file: prefix for --password and --input params:

            pkcs5-tool --algorithm PBEWithHmacSHA1AndAES_128 --password env:APP_PASSWORD --input secret --encrypt > /path/data.enc
            pkcs5-tool --algorithm PBEWithHmacSHA1AndAES_128 --password env:APP_PASSWORD --input file:/path/data.enc --decrypt
