I just realised when I saw the call for a faster UUDECODE that I have most of the pieces I need to put together such a program, but I don't fully understand the 'protocol'. Is there a protocol document available somewhere? I sort of get the basic idea, but there's a number in the first line of the file that doesn't change with different files, but I've heard changes with different versions of the encoder, and there's an 'M' as the first character of every line, and such like that. Many thanks in advance. Willie SMith w_smith@wookie.dec.com w_smith%wookie.dec.com@decwrl.dec.com {usenet backbone}!decwrl!wookie.dec.com!w_smith
