[in answer to the recently posted question "How to I uuencode"]

Uuencode takes two arguments and defaults to stdout.  I'm forever
forgetting the syntax, so I use the following shell script to make
uuencoded files:

	uuencode $1 $1 > $1.uue

Assuming you called the script uue, the syntax is:

	uue my.arc

which will create my.arc.uue
