See Phone number

<p>Appelez le <a href="tel:+33612345678">06 12 34 56 78</a>.</p>

Base 64 encoding

Base64 encoding = 5/4 * original data size

To encode:

recode ../b64 < file.png
base64 < file.png
openssl enc -base64 < file.png | tr -d '\n'
uuencode -m -o /dev/stdout file
# To copy in clipboard on macOS, use:
# command | pbcopy
# Exemple:
# base64 < file.png | pbcopy
function dataurl() {
	local mimeType=$(file -b --mime-type "$1");
	if [[ $mimeType == text/* ]]; then
		mimeType="${mimeType};charset=utf-8";
	fi
	echo "data:${mimeType};base64,$(openssl base64 -in "$1" | tr -d '\n')";
}

# Usage:
dataurl file

To decode:

echo B64STRING | recode b64/.. > file.png
openssl enc -base64 -d <<< B64STRING
echo B64STRING | base64 -D
openssl enc -base64 -d -A << EOF
B64STRING_LINE1
B64STRING_LINE2
EOF

See also bash - How can I decode a base64 string from the command line? - Ask Ubuntu

Or create a Automator Service (MacOSX only) with a shell command cat "$1" | base64 | pbcopy or cat "$@" | base64 | pbcopy (for concat all provided files)
