This looks just too much like base64 encoding. Decoding them as base64indeed 
showed that they might be somehow shifted and  then base64encoded:
python>>> f=file("code")>>> for line in f:...   print line.rstrip('\n'),"  ", 
line.decode('base64')...aQ==    icg==    rew==    {aWo=    ijaXE=    iqe3g=    
{xaWpq    ijjaWpx    ijqaXFx    iqqcnFx    rqq
so you can continue with the rest, I'm too lazy for that ;)
