I do not use the supplied uudecode anymore, 
the uud / uue posted to comp.sources.unix is
much nicer (You don't have to edit the files before
uudecoding them, and it splits the file while encoding
into reasonable pieces with reasonable names.)

There occured only one problem:

sscanf() does not return the number of matched patterns, as it
is supposed to do.  I just dropped the check and uud worked fine,
but if anyone has fixed scanf & brothers, please post or mail
the fixes.
