If you can't get a copy of uudecode, maybe it can be reposted? It might be a good idea to cross-ref it to net.micro as well. In reguards to kermit. It is important to make sure that you "set file-type binary" on unix kermit. If you are using multiplexers such as micoms, you may need to lower the baud rate before you connect/login. Be sure you check the status on the ST side to make sure there are no nak packets. there seem to be some problems with unix kermit, or features, that make transfers a little less "automatic" than other kermits. Some versions of unix-kermit can run in 8 bit no-parity mode, and the non-unix kermit can be set the same way. I don't believe this is the default.
