-.TH UUENCODE 5 6/1/80
-.UC 4
-.SH NAME
-uuencode \- format of an encoded uuencode file
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Files output by
-.I uuencode(1)
-consist of a header line,
-followed by a number of body lines,
-and a trailer line.
-.I Uudecode(1)
-will ignore any lines preceding the header or
-following the trailer.
-Lines preceding a header must not, of course,
-look like a header.
-.PP
-The header line is distinguished by having the first
-6 characters \*(lqbegin\ \*(rq.
-The word
-.I begin
-is followed by a mode (in octal),
-and a string which names the remote file.
-A space separates the three items in the header line.
-.PP
-The body consists of a number of lines, each at most 62 characters
-long (including the trailing newline).
-These consist of a character count,
-followed by encoded characters,
-followed by a newline.
-The character count is a single printing character,
-and represents an integer, the number of bytes
-the rest of the line represents.
-Such integers are always in the range from 0 to 63 and can
-be determined by subtracting the character space (octal 40)
-from the character.
-.PP
-Groups of 3 bytes are stored in 4 characters, 6 bits per character.
-All are offset by a space to make the characters printing.
-The last line may be shorter than the normal 45 bytes.
-If the size is not a multiple of 3, this fact can be determined
-by the value of the count on the last line.
-Extra garbage will be included to make the character count a multiple
-of 4.
-The body is terminated by a line with a count of zero.
-This line consists of one ASCII space.
-.PP
-The trailer line consists of \*(lqend\*(rq on a line by itself.
