> Subject: v10i258: qux01_91, uu and xx encoders (part 01/01)

Is this supposed to work for any binary file?  I have a ZIP
file that, when I use qux01_91 to uuencode and then uudecode
it, the resulting ZIP file (1) fails "pkunzip -t <filename>";
(2) is shorter than the original ZIP file.

For now for me personally, I will continue to use the much
slower (but correct!) 

        UU-ENCODE 2.13 FOR PC.  by Richard Marks

                        and

        UU-DECODE 2.14 FOR PC.  by Richard Marks

which are what I've been using error-free for years.

Note: I would have emailed this directly to the author of
qux01_91, but according to the blurb in cpib, he is not
very available just now.
