\HushList supports file attachments and embedding arbitrary binary data, it is not limited to ASCII.
\nsection{Design of \HushList}
The design of \HushList is inspired by Git. This document specifies a protocol and the authors provide a reference implementation of this protocol in cross-platform Perl which can be easily installed on millions of computers around the world via CPAN and other methods.
\HushList should work across any platform that supports Perl and Hush (or your other coin).
The reference implemenation is written in a maintainable and testable way such that it
can easily evolve as the Protocol evolves.
It is hoped that in the future there will be many implementations of \HushList, running on
various blockchains and using various software stacks. The design of \HushList is compatible with Simple Payment Verification (SPV) light wallets and a future version of \HushList will learn to speak an ElectrumX backend server.
\nsection{Reference Implementation}
The reference implementation is developed as Free Software on Github at the following URL:
https://github.com/leto/hushlist
This code is still in active development, consider it EXPERIMENTAL and ONLY FOR DEVELOPERS at this point pending a security review.
\nsection{Account Funding}

the z\_sendmany RPC command. Up to 54 recepients may be in a single shielded
transaction. v1 of HushList only supports HushLists of this size, but v2
may implement larger HushLists.
may implement larger HushLists by breaking large recipient lists into multiple sends.
One may send a string of text via the *send* subcommand or send the contents of a file via the *send-file* subcommand.
