Sure. base64:

DESCRIPTION
       Base64 encode or decode FILE, or standard input, to standard output.
       With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.
       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short 
options too.

       -d, --decode
              decode data
       -i, --ignore-garbage
              when decoding, ignore non-alphabet characters
       -w, --wrap=COLS
              wrap encoded lines after COLS character (default 76).  
Use 0 to disable line wrapping

       --help display this help and exit
       --version
              output version information and exit

       The  data  are  encoded as described for the base64 alphabet in 
RFC 4648.  When decoding, the input may contain newlines in addition to 
the bytes of the formal base64 alphabet. Use --ignore-garbage to attempt 
to recover
       from any other non-alphabet bytes in the encoded stream.
