What does *.zuu* mean?  I know it is some kind compression, but which one?

The .zuu extension means the file is an uuencoded zoo-file. The reason
files are uuencoded is to be able to xmit a binary file along a 7 bit
line, without getting the data's 8th bit trashed.

	Nice work on MSH. It works fine for me.
