[comp.os.cpm] UUENCODE and UUDECODE in Z-80 assembly

w_smith@wookie.DEC.COM.UUCP (06/02/87)

	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.
