#100686 — Library function to encode data to multipart/form-data format?

SubjectLibrary function to encode data to multipart/form-data format?
Message-ID<n59e64$ct4$1@reader1.panix.com>
Is there a standard library function that can be used to encode data
into multipart/form-data format?  IIRC, I looked for this once before
and didn't find anything in the library. 

[I don't want to actually send an HTTP POST or an email message, I
just need to generate sets of data for test purposes.]

Cannibalise this:

which just uses standard library things.

Yep, that's what I ended up doing.  I noticed that the code referenced
above doesn't check to make sure the boundary string is not contained
in the data, so I fixed that.
