Quadling) Newsgroups: comp.sys.atari.st Subject: RE: UUDECODER Message-ID: <8904132024.AA21019@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU> Date: 13 Apr 89 20:12:37 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 35 Chris, There is no guarantee that I am right, but the UUDECODE.BAS should be run on a file called UUD.UUE (or something similar). The .BAS file is NOT a complete working copy, just a temporary one so that you can get the proper version. This does make sense. If you run the .BAS on the .UUE (ONLY the UUDecode program), you should then have a valid UUD.TTP file. You can then UUDecode happily. I think the .BAS file only does a very simple alalgorithm which has no REAL value outside that of de-encoding the original UUD.TTP file. I hope this makes sense. As I am a bit wary of my gateway, PLEASE send a reply specifically to me saying you received this mail. (Please give the date and times when you received it and the header ,so I can give a better pathway.) Have fun. Gilbert. P.S. I think what I said is right, but others may know different. =====================++======================================================== Richard Alan Quadling|| (JANET) S82895@UK.AC.PLYMOUTH.PRIME-A 11, Fellowes Place, || (BITNET) If you can fill in the blanks for me I would Millbridge, || be very happy.
