[comp.binaries.ibm.pc] uudecode source for Unix

W8SDZ@SIMTEL20.ARPA (Keith Petersen) (04/13/88)

Here is uudecode for Unix, the companion program for the uuencode I
posted to the comp.binaries.ibm.pc newsgroup.  As you know, I have
been trying to get posters to use the newer uuencode because it uses
the accent grave (`) in place of the space character to get around
problems with some mailers that strip trailing blanks.  This program
is for Unix - it is not intended to be used on MSDOS.

There are sources on SIMTEL20 for uuencode and uudecode for MSDOS that
I can send along if you need them.  Personally I prefer to transfer
binaries to/from the Unix host with DSZ and rz/sz, uuencoding and
uudecoding them there.  It is much faster.

Compile with the command:  cc -O uudecode.c -o uudecode

Don't forget to trim off the trailing cut and signature lines before
compiling.
