make output of ldapsearch readable (disable base64)

[Zhang Weiwu <zhangweiwu@realss.com>]

Hello.

Since I have been working on a Chinese language based directory the
ldapsearch tool was difficult for me to use, the result is always not
readable.

This is because if an attribute value contain Chinese, it's
automatically displayed using base64. I had to copy & paste the result
to 'base64 -d' to read every result, which kills my efficiency. I had to
switch to a GUI ldapbrower, which kills my efficiency more because I
cannot store most of my frequent queries and call them back as easily
would be done on console with readline support.

Is there a way to use ldapsearch and disable using base64 for non-ascii
characters? I searched into the manual without a clue.

Example of un-readable output:

zhangweiwu@esmeralda:~$ ldapsearch -H ldap://gtz.ods.org -D uid=admin,st=jiangxi,o=LGOP -x -w secret -b st=jiangxi,o=LGOP '(pwdFailureTime=*)' pwdFailureTime pwdAccountLockedTime
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <st=jiangxi,o=LGOP> with scope subtree
# filter: (pwdFailureTime=*)
# requesting: pwdFailureTime pwdAccountLockedTime
