What is UUDeview?

UUDeview

UUDeview is a handy program that helps you send and receive binary files over the Internet, using email or newsgroups. Whether you’re a tech whiz or just getting started, this software makes file sharing a breeze!

Key Features of UUDeview

The UUDeview package comes with both an encoder and a decoder. The decoder is smart—it automatically figures out what type of encoding is used. It supports MIME's Base64 and BinHex, along with the popular uuencoding and the not-so-common xxencoding methods.

Support for yEnc Encoding

Recently, support for yEnc encoding was added too! This means you can handle even more types of files without any hassle. The encoder works in reverse; it takes your binary files and prepares them to be sent via email or news.

A Powerful Decoder

What’s really cool about UUDeview is its powerful decoding abilities. It’s designed with news readers in mind. You can save multiple articles from your email software or newsreader into one file or several files, then launch UUDeview. It will do the heavy lifting, decoding everything from those messages.

UUEnview – An Encoding Tool

The package also includes UUEnview, another strong tool for encoding files. Both tools are built on top of the UUDeview library, making them super useful for anyone developing mail or news software.

User-Friendly Options

Here are some key features:

• If you want to use yEnc encoding, be careful—it doesn’t work with MIME! I recommend sticking to Base64/MIME instead.


• The '-c' option lets you delete all files if anything was decoded from them—be cautious because it doesn’t check for other data!


• You can enable autorename (-a), which renames output files if they already exist (like foo.gif turning into foo.gif.1).


• If you use '+a', it adds a unique number before the last dot in filenames while keeping the extension (so foo.gif becomes foo.1.gif).


• The 'more mime' option (-z) makes sure UUDeview isn’t too eager when searching for encoded data in MIME messages.

If you're ready to get started with UUDeview, you'll find that it's easy to use and packed full of features!
