-.TH UUENCODE 1
-.SH NAME
-uuencode, uudecode \- encode/decode a binary file for
-transmission via mail
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B uuencode
-[
-.I file
-]
-.I remotedest
-.br
-.B uudecode
-[
-.I file
-]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-These routines are useful for sending binary files by
-.IR mail (1).
-.PP
-.I Uuencode
-places on the standard output an encoded version of the named
-.I file
-(standard input by default).
-The encoding, which uses only printing ASCII characters,
-includes the mode of the file and a name
-.I remotedest
-into which it will be decoded.
-.PP
-.I Uudecode
-reads encoded data from a
-.I file
-or from the standard input and recreates the
-original data with the mode and name given in the file.
-As the encoded file is ordinary text, the name or
-mode can be changed by editing.
-.PP
-An encoded file contains noise lines, a header line, data,
-trailer, and more noise in that order.
-The header contains
-.LR begin ,
-the octal mode, and the remote name separated by spaces.
-Each data line contains a count in the range 0-63, encoded
-as a single byte with value offset by 040 (space), followed
-by the encoding of that many bytes of source.
-24-bit (3-byte) segments of source are
-coded in 4 6-bit pieces, again represented in
-offset-040 code.
-The trailer is a data line with count 0 and then
-the line
-.LR end .
-.B SEE ALSO
-.IR uucp (1),
-.IR mail (1)
-.SH BUGS
-The interface is meretricious.
-The remote name should be decided by
-the recipient, not the sender.
-The command
-.L uuencode myfile
-does not encode
-.L myfile ,
-but rather reads from standard input.
