I want to uuencode and transmit a large file ( >1024k ), but don't want
to send one massive chunk.

The syntax is 'uuencode infile outfile destfile' but results in one
massive file. I assume I can split it and mail the individual split
parts, but that might create a problem if they end up with the wrong
part numbers through an error here - is there an automatic way to
split the output into (for instance) 100k files with uuencode?
