This serialization is compact, and will be interpreted the same in all character encodings. It can be copied inline into an email, or saved in a text file. The advantage over the analogous PGP encoding is that there are some human readable elements to it, for users that wish to examine the TxDP packet manually, instead of requiring a program to parse the core elements of the TxDP. 97 98-A party receiving this TxDP can simply add their signature to the appropriate _TXINPUT_ line. If that is the last signature required, they can broadcast it themselves. Any software that implements this standard should be able to combine multiple TxDPs into a single TxDP. However, even without the programmatic support, a user could manually combine them by copying the appropriate _TXSIGS_ lines between serializations, though it is not the recommended method for combining TxDPs. 99+A party receiving this TxDP can simply add their signature to the appropriate _TXINPUT_ line.

Thank you for your proposal. We usually no longer directly merge typo fixups in favor of batching them into a monthly cleanup that will credit you as author. Thanks!
