In Article 4917  akcs.dnickel@hpcvbbs.UUCP (Derek S. Nickel) says:

> As far as I can tell, UUENCODE is just as hard (or harder) to get as ASC.

This PC-man doesn't seem to read comp.binaries.ibm.pc . Recently
someone dropped a complete package for uuencoding and uudecodeing
files on a MesSy-DOS-machine there, and this goes for the Amiga too,
And most of us, as said before, have UNIX (how can you else read this?)
at school, and therefore must have NO problem messing with UUDECODE !

Yes, send files with uuencoding, we've done that for a VERY long time
when it comes to home-computer-files-over-the-net.
